Summary:
The Gresham-Barlow School District 10J in Oregon is home to three high schools: Sam Barlow High School, Gresham High School, and Springwater Trail High School. While the district as a whole is ranked 95 out of 140 in Oregon and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Springwater Trail High School stands out as the highest-performing school in the district.
Springwater Trail High School has significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) compared to the district and state averages, with 59.4% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in 2023-2024, compared to 35.7% for the district and 45.2% for the state. In mathematics, Springwater Trail's proficiency rates are slightly higher than the district average but still well below the state average. The school also has the lowest free and reduced lunch rate at 79.26%, the highest spending per student at $18,277, and the lowest student-teacher ratio at 17.6, suggesting it may have more resources and a more effective educational approach.
In contrast, Gresham High School appears to be the lowest-performing high school in the district, with lower test scores, significantly higher free and reduced lunch rates at 86.43%, and a higher student-teacher ratio of 26.4. These differences in performance and student demographics among the three high schools suggest potential equity concerns within the Gresham-Barlow School District 10J that may require targeted interventions and resource allocation to ensure all students have access to quality education.
