lone School Dis
trict is one of 392 Oregon
schools to receive an over
all rating of “outstanding’
on the eleventh annual Or
egon School Report Card.
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. Since that
time, lone has ranked as
follows: 2000- Satisfactory;
2001-Exceptional; 2002-
Exceptional; 2003-Strong;
2004-Satisfactory; 2005-
Strong; 2006-Strong; 2007-
Exceptional; 2008- Excep
tional; and 2009- Outstand
ing.
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.
