High Schools in Morrow School District 1

Summary:

The Morrow School District 1 in Oregon is home to three high schools: Riverside Junior/Senior High School, Irrigon Junior/Senior High School, and Heppner Junior/Senior High School. These schools serve students in grades 7-12 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the district.

Among the three high schools, Heppner Junior/Senior High School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the best schools in Oregon with a 4-star rating in 2023-2024 and a 5-star rating in 2022-2023. Heppner's test scores significantly exceed the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to the other two high schools in the district.

While the district-wide four-year graduation rate is 81.8%, the chronic absenteeism rate across all three high schools is high at 34.3%. Additionally, the free/reduced lunch rates are relatively consistent, ranging from 67.74% to 68.39%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. These factors suggest areas for potential improvement in student engagement, attendance, and resource allocation to support the academic success of all students within the Morrow School District 1.
