FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Dear Parents and Community Members,
To provide your child with a high­quality education so they will
be ready for the demands of career, college and life. That is our
goal and this annual report card is one way to inform you of our
progress
On page 2, you can see how our school compares with others
statewide. See page 3 to learn about what makes our school a
special place for your child.
Thanks to the work of dedicated, caring staff members and the
support of families, we know that more students are graduating
and going on to further education. Your role in helping your
child graduate begins when you emphasize school attendance
and the value of continual learning, especially during the middle
school years. Together we can nurture your child’s dreams,
celebrate their culture, foster a love of learning, and support
their needs.
High expectations are a key part of a caring, respectful and
challenging learning environment. Thank you for your
continued support of our school and your child. Thank you,
Principal | Alyson Brant

OVERALL SCHOOL RATING HOW ARE STUDENTS AT THIS SCHOOL PERFORMING COMPARED TO THOSE AT OTHER SCHOOLS?
The overall school rating is intended to summarize this school's particular successes and challenges. It is based on a
combination of up to five factors. Three of these factors come from standardized test scores in reading and math: student
achievement, student growth, and the growth of underserved subgroups. Please note that this rating is based mainly on high­
stakes testing and, accordingly, doesn't represent a complete view of your school's performance. Other aspects of this report card
are designed to put this rating in the proper context.
The U. S. Department of Education has given the State of Oregon approval to temporarily suspend
the assignment of school ratings during the transition from the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge
and Skills (OAKS) to the new college and career readiness assessments. Schools will not receive an
overall school rating on this report card and will receive a new overall school rating on the 2015­16
school report cards.
