JERUSALEM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Jerusalem Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Oregon City school district, located in Curtice, OH with about 410 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 4th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 23 teachers, Jerusalem Elementary School has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Jerusalem Elementary School, located at 535 S Yondota Rd in Curtice, Ohio, serves as a key educational facility within the Oregon City School District. Situated in a more rural, scenic portion of the district near the shores of Lake Erie, the school provides a foundational learning environment for students in the surrounding community. It emphasizes the district’s core mission of fostering academic growth, personal development, and a supportive atmosphere for young learners as they transition through their primary education years.

As part of the Oregon City Schools system, Jerusalem Elementary benefits from the resources and curriculum standards of a larger district while maintaining the close-knit, community-focused feel of a neighborhood school. The faculty and staff are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment that encourages student engagement and prepares children for success as they advance toward middle school. Through its focus on both core academic subjects and social-emotional growth, the school plays an integral role in the educational fabric of the Curtice area.
