M.C.E. has been a wonderful experience for our children. We are very happy with the staff and with the education they receive here. Good group of parents and teachers provide a nice support team for our precious children. Keep up the good work!

We've been very happy with our child's experience at this school. She was put in appropriately challenging situations and I felt the staff was always very supportive. Communication has been very good also!

My daughter was bullied out of this school in the second grade, they refused to put her on an IEP, and I received no help from them for my daughters learning issues. I fought with them for 2 years trying to get things situated and straightened out and eventually my daughter was begging to be home schooled because people were not mean to her there!

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.
