Orono Senior High boasts a 84.2% four-year graduation rate, well above the state average, and a low dropout rate of 4.4%. Academically, the school's students significantly outperform their peers statewide on MCA-III assessments in Math, Reading, and Science, with proficiency rates ranging from 47.71% to 66.18% compared to the state averages of 34.96% to 51.26%.
