Crane Union High School up 76 spots statewide this year
Summary:

Crane, Oregon is served by four listed schools — one K–8 elementary, one 9–12 high school, and two K–12 alternative schools — enrolling a combined 2,420 students across two districts, Harney County School District 4 and Harney County Union High School District 1J.

Crane Union High School is the clear academic standout, ranking #2 of 271 high schools statewide (99th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–26, with 90.5% proficiency in English language arts, 65.0% in math, and at least 95% in science — far above the state's 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. Its 92.6% graduation rate and 31.5% chronic absenteeism also beat state figures. Crane Elementary School is a strong performer too: despite 67.2% free/reduced lunch, it posts 68.7% ELA, 59.9% math, and 61.1% science, above state averages, and ranks #95 of 709 (87th percentile, 4 stars), with 28.8% chronic absenteeism.

The two alternative schools enroll about 88% of Crane's listed students but show very different profiles. Silvies River Charter School is the largest school (1,219 students) with a 92.5% graduation rate, but the highest chronic absenteeism at 57.2% and weaker math (23.5%). Oregon Family School (919 students) has the best attendance at 20.7% and an 88.0% graduation rate, though its reported ELA (33.3%) and math (18.2%) lag and its science score is suppressed. Notably, all four schools report graduation rates above Oregon's 83.0% where available.
