Summary:
The Lincoln County School District in Oregon is home to 5 high schools serving grades 9-12. These schools vary in their academic performance, with Waldport High School standing out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently ranking among the best in the state. Newport High School is also a high-performing school, maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past 3 years.
The data reveals some interesting disparities within the district. For example, Taft High School and Toledo Senior High School have the highest free and reduced lunch rates, suggesting they may be serving a more economically disadvantaged student population. Additionally, there is significant variation in spending per student across the schools, from $10,082 at Lincoln City Career Technical High School to $29,861 at Toledo Senior High School, raising questions about the equity of resource allocation within the district.
Across all 5 high schools, the district faces a concerning issue of high chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 34.3% in the 2023-2024 school year. This is an area that the district may need to focus on, as chronic absenteeism is often linked to lower academic achievement and other negative outcomes. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive view of the high schools within the Lincoln County School District, highlighting both the strengths and areas for improvement.
