That figure sits 4% below the Oregon state mean of 18.2:1, signalling more teacher attention per pupil than the state benchmark. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.9:1, it is 10% higher, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.
Title I and federal lunch eligibility offer another window into the student body: 64.5% of pupils qualify for free meals, a proxy for household income that federal programs use to direct funding. The free-lunch share is 12% above the Oregon average and 25% above the national baseline. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 40.6% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Central Sd 13j spends $16,013 per pupil district-wide, below the Oregon average of $22,293 and below the national average of $19,490.
