Irrigon Junior/Senior High School has consistently underperformed compared to state and district averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 11th-grade proficiency rates were 38.9% in English Language Arts, 11.5% in Math, and 21% in Science, compared to the state averages of 44.4%, 20.3%, and 32.6%, respectively. The school's performance has been declining over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 152 out of 283 high schools in 2017-2018 to 199 out of 270 high schools in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 33% to 45.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby Stanfield Secondary School and Riverside Junior/Senior High School.
While Irrigon Junior/Senior High School shares some similarities with nearby schools, such as graduation rates and chronic absenteeism, it consistently underperforms these schools in academic measures. The school serves a high proportion of students from low-income families, with 67.75% to 68.03% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, which is higher than the nearby schools. The school's higher spending per student, at $18,534 and $17,756 in 2022-2023 and 2021-2022, respectively, may be an attempt to address these challenges, but the academic results suggest that more targeted interventions may be needed to improve the school's performance.
