What stands out at Plush Elementary School

Attendance is the dominant support signal

Plush Elementary School's 25.0% chronic-absence rate is more consequential than a generic staffing label: at least one quarter of students missed 10% or more of school days in the 2021-22 collection. That level can affect instruction, counseling demand, and continuity even when other reported resources look ordinary. The dataset records the scale of absence but not its causes, so it should prompt a current-year question rather than a conclusion about school management.

Plush Elementary School is a small combined-grade school in Plush, Oregon, enrolling 4 students.

This is a small campus: fewer students than 99% of Oregon schools, with 4 enrolled.

Its Resource Investment Index sits near the middle of the pack among 1,273 scored Oregon schools.
