Summary:
Canby High School is the only high school in Canby School District 86, serving grades 9–12 with 1,402 students at 721 SW 4th Ave in Canby, Oregon. Because it is the district’s sole high school, district high-school figures and school figures are essentially the same, especially at grade 11.
The school’s clearest strengths are graduation and science. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate is 90.8%, well above Oregon’s 83.0%. Science proficiency is 38.6%, higher than the district all-grade rate of 29.9%, the state all-grade rate of 30.6%, and the state’s 11th-grade rate of 33.8%. In 11th-grade math, 27.3% of students are proficient, above Oregon’s 11th-grade rate of 22.9%. Ranking has also improved: the school moved from 149th of 270 (45th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025 to 130th of 271 (52nd percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026, though it remains below its 2023–2024 position of 98th of 268 (63rd percentile, 3 stars).
The main academic concern is English language arts. At 11th grade, 32.3% of students are proficient in ELA, compared with Oregon’s 46.0%. Chronic absenteeism is also high at 36.8%, above the district rate of 30.7% and the state rate of 33.5%. For context, 62.48% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, per-student spending is $17,426, and the student–teacher ratio is 21.9:1. Overall, Canby High shows strong graduation and science results and above-state 11th-grade math, but ELA and attendance remain the areas to watch.
