Summary:
Gervais, Oregon is served by four schools — all part of Gervais School District 1 — covering kindergarten through 12th grade: one elementary (K–5), one middle (6–8), one high school (9–12), and a K–12 charter school. Together they enroll 1,247 students, and enrollment is fairly balanced except at the middle school, which is the smallest of the four with 198 students.
Standouts: Frontier Charter Academy is the academic outlier, with all-grade proficiency well above district and state in ELA (67.6%), math (48.6%), and science (62.5%), plus by far the lowest chronic absenteeism at 10.9%. Its graduation rate is lower, though — 68.2% versus the district's 81.4% and the state's 83.0% — and it spends far less per student ($6,786). Gervais High School has the highest graduation rate at 89.2%, above the state's 83.0%, but the lowest math proficiency (16.7%) and the highest absenteeism (42.7%). Gervais Middle School shows the strongest improvement, rising from 1 star to 3 stars and from the 23rd to the 51st percentile over three years, with ELA essentially at the state average.
Gervais Elementary School is more mixed: math (33.0%) edges the state (32.9%), but ELA (41.4%) and science (17.2%) trail it, even as its rank improved to 2 stars. Science is a district-wide weak point outside the charter. The district itself is rated 33rd of 141 in Oregon at the 77th percentile with 4 stars.
