There are 1,727 public and private schools in Oregon. In 1999, the Or egon legislature passed the legislation calling for each school and district in the state to receive a report card. The first school and district report cards were issued in 2000.

Each fall, Oregon releases three major re ports on public schools: the Oregon school report cards; student achievement on state tests in reading, writing, mathematics, and science; and the federal Adequate Yearly Progress report required under No Child Left Behind. O f the three reports, the school report cards offer the most co m p lete look at how schools are performing be cause they include a more thorough review of school quality. Included in O r egon's school report cards is information on student test performance, school improvement, attendance, dropout rates, class size, SAT scores, expulsions due to weapons, and teacher education and experience. m nm pïïtïïïït ™ Arbuckle Nordic Club announces winter schedule lone School receives “Out standing” rating Low cost tire with a high traction tread compound for added durability and tread life. •R fs WÍ A ll ' “ft- ™ Wi lo w COST MOUNTING • III CHICKS • ROTATIONS ROAD HAZARD • FIAT REPAIR É 0 *£& • i t i t t rssfllis* WÍ low COST ti tu This is an excellent value on highway and all season radiais.
