Grants Pass School District 7 students made significant gains in both English Language Arts (ELA) and math on the 2025-26 Oregon Statewide Assessment System (OSAS) tests, with growth across the district and particularly strong gains in grades 3, 5, and 7.
These results reflect years of work by our teachers and staff. Our district has made a long-term investment in literacy, including science of reading training, a new K-5 reading and writing curriculum, interim and benchmark assessments, and regular collaboration around student data.
