Echo Shaw is an amazing place where teachers and staff truly care about their students. They take pride in their students' achievements, are accepting and encouraging of their struggles, and celebrate their students' differences. It's a place where children and families feel safe to learn not only academics, but also about themselves, each other, and their community."

My children attend the Spanish Immersion Program. They are becoming bi-lingual and are challenged in this school environment. The teachers care about their students and have kept me abreast of my children's successes and challenges. After school clubs are offered here as well. I would highly recommend Echo Shaw and I believe in the leadership and direction that this school has and continues to take.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Oregon used the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (OAKS) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math; in grades 4, 7 and 10 in writing; and in grades 5, 8 and 10 in science. The OAKS is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Oregon. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
