Oakridge High School

Summary:

Oakridge High School is a public high school located in Oakridge, Oregon, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 148 students. The school is part of the Oakridge School District 76, which is ranked 134 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oakridge High School has consistently underperformed compared to the state average in standardized test scores, with only 30% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 5% in Mathematics, and 15% in Science, all significantly lower than the state averages. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years but has generally been in the bottom half of Oregon high schools, ranking 240 out of 268 in the 2023-2024 school year with a 1-star rating. The performance of different student subgroups has been mixed, with male students performing relatively better than female students. Despite the relatively high spending per student at $30,529, the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby Lowell Junior/Senior High School, which is part of the Lowell School District 71, appears to have stronger academic performance, with higher proficiency rates in several subject areas and a higher statewide ranking. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Oakridge High School to learn from the practices and strategies employed by its neighboring school to drive meaningful improvements in its own academic outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
