What this school's NCES data tells you
Village School reports 225 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 7.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 31.9:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 75% above the Oregon state mean of 18.2:1, signalling larger average class loads than peers in the same state. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.9:1, it is 101% higher, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.
Title I and federal lunch eligibility offer another window into the student body: 40.8% of pupils qualify for free meals, a proxy for household income that federal programs use to direct funding. The free-lunch share is 29% below the Oregon average and 21% below the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 225 students per counselor, meeting the American School Counselor Association recommendation of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 32.9% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Eugene Sd 4j spends $22,924 per pupil district-wide, above the Oregon average of $22,293 and above the national average of $19,490.
