The median class size in Oregon for all subjects and grades has held steady at 25 students for the past three reporting years, according to data released Tuesday.

The Oregon Department of Education has reported class size data since the 2014-15 school year. The data for the 2016-17 school year offer median class size for every school and district in the state by grade or subject.

The class size report offers a more detailed look than the school and district report cards released last week.

Oregon had 553,492 students last year, an increase of a little more than 4,000 students. Oregon had almost 24,000 teachers, about 400 more than the previous year.
