Metro overview
493 schools ranked · Updated July 26, 2026 · Cross-state metro (OR + WA)
These are the schools where raw test performance and decoded performance disagree most. The shift column shows the gap between Achievement Rank and Decoded Rank.
Raw scores are modest, but decoded performance is strong — these schools are doing more than their context predicts.
High raw scores AND high decoded performance — doing more with their context than peer schools at the same level.
Raw scores are high, but the school's advantaged context predicts even higher — raw scores may overstate the school's effect.

Cross-state metro note: The Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro, OR-WA metro spans OR and WA. Decoded ranks are computed within each state's assessment system, then aggregated; raw scores use the shared Smarter Balanced scale for grades 3–8 ELA/math.
SchoolDecoder publishes context-adjusted residuals, not causal estimates. Decoded Rank is one signal — not a verdict on teaching quality. Read about limitations →
