Summary:

The Crook County School District in Oregon serves students from 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, with no alternative schools. The district as a whole is ranked 22 out of 140 school districts in the state and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out in the district. Powell Butte Community Charter School is a top-performing elementary/middle school, ranking in the top 25% of Oregon elementary schools with particularly strong English Language Arts scores. Crooked River Elementary also has above-average performance, ranking in the top 30% of Oregon elementary schools with strong English Language Arts and math proficiency. As the largest high school, Crook County High School has seen improvements in its statewide ranking, moving from the bottom half to the top 40% over the past 3 years.

However, the district faces some challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, significant disparities in spending per student and student-teacher ratios, and variable academic performance on state assessments. Targeted interventions and resource allocation strategies may be needed to address these issues and improve outcomes district-wide.
