About Oregon-davis Elementary School
Oregon-Davis Elementary School serves 310 students in Hamlet, Indiana, from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. With a composite score of 9.0 out of 10 and an Exceptional rating, it stands among the strongest public elementary schools in the state — ranking 30th out of 1,047 Indiana elementary schools and placing in the top 2% statewide across all 1,823 public schools. The school's growth score of 9.3 out of 10 is the standout signal here.

A student-teacher ratio of 12.9 to 1 keeps class sizes manageable, giving teachers room to address individual learning gaps rather than managing a crowd.
For families in Hamlet weighing local options, Oregon-Davis is the clear leader — ranking first of the two public schools in town. The combination of strong academics, exceptional growth, and an attentive classroom environment puts this school well above most of what Indiana public education offers at the elementary level.
