View Acres School is a wonderful school with an array of caring and skilled educators. It offers a safe and secure learning environment to children from ages K through 6. View Acres also has a incredible practice for involving parents, grandparents and caregivers by creating and environment of inclusion and resource effectiveness.

This is an incredible school with great staff that care about the children - and that's all staff from the secretaries to the librarians, the teacher's aides to the principal and even the wonderful janitor, too (and of course the teachers!)! The test scores reflect the above average education that the children are receiving. This is a wonderful school!!!

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.
