REYNOLDS ARTHUR ACADEMY

Reynolds Arthur Academy is a public charter elementary school that is part of the Reynolds SD 7 school district, located in Troutdale, OR with about 203 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 6th Grade. With about 11 teachers, Reynolds Arthur Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 18:1. 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.

Reynolds Arthur Academy is a tuition-free public charter school located in Troutdale, Oregon, serving students from kindergarten through fifth grade. As part of the broader Arthur Academy network, the school is founded on the principles of the Direct Instruction (DI) teaching model. This pedagogical approach emphasizes structured, teacher-led lessons designed to maximize student engagement and academic mastery, particularly in core subjects like reading, mathematics, and language arts.

The school aims to foster a high-achieving, disciplined, and supportive environment that prepares students for success in middle school and beyond. By maintaining smaller class sizes and focusing on a consistent, research-based curriculum, Reynolds Arthur Academy strives to ensure that every student builds a strong foundational knowledge base. The school is open to all students within the Reynolds School District, offering families a public alternative that prioritizes academic rigor and clear instructional goals.
