Summary:
Lebanon, Oregon is home to nine schools — one high school, one middle school, and seven elementary schools, two of which serve K–8 grades — all within Lebanon Community School District 9. Together they enroll about 3,916 students, ranging from Lebanon High School (1,162 students) down to Lacomb School (228). The district ranks 65th of 141 in Oregon — the 54th percentile, 3 stars — and most schools serve high-poverty populations, with free/reduced lunch generally reported in the 87%–106% range (values above 100% are reporting artifacts), except Sand Ridge Charter School at 61%.
Sand Ridge Charter is the clear academic standout and the only school above the state average in all three tested subjects: ELA 69.8%, math 56.3%, and science 47.1%, versus state rates of 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. It ranks in the 86th percentile (4 stars) and has the lowest chronic absenteeism in the city at 26.9%, below the state's 33.5%. Other bright spots include Cascades School in math (44.4%, above the state) and Pioneer School in science (33.3%, above the state), while Lacomb School posts the lowest absenteeism at 25.5%.
Most other schools fall below state averages. Green Acres School has the weakest results — 26.5% ELA, 18.4% math, 9.1% science, 0 stars — despite spending $21,767 per student with the smallest classes. Lebanon High School graduates 87.8% of students (above the state's 83.0%), but only 15.1% are proficient in 11th-grade math and 15.6% in science, with absenteeism at 48.6%. Seven Oak Middle School posts 15.2% math. Notably, spending and outcomes don't track closely: Sand Ridge reports the lowest spending at $4,820 yet the highest results, and seven of nine schools exceed the state's chronic absenteeism rate.
