Summary:

The Three Rivers/Josephine County School District in Oregon consists of 17 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 5 high schools, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 79 out of 140 in Oregon and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Several schools in the district stand out for their exceptional performance. Fruitdale Elementary School and Williams Elementary School consistently rank in the top 25% and 15% of Oregon elementary schools, respectively, with high proficiency rates in core subjects. Manzanita Elementary School and Applegate Elementary School also perform above the district and state averages, with Applegate showing significant improvement in recent years.

However, the district faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%, which is significantly higher than the state average. The district's 11th-grade proficiency rates are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in Mathematics. Additionally, the schools in the district have a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 75% to 77%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite these challenges, the data suggests that with the right strategies and support, the overall performance of the district could be improved by learning from the successful practices of the standout schools.
