Summary:
North Bend School District 13 is a five-school Oregon district serving about 2,762 students: two elementary schools, one middle school, one high school, and one K–12 alternative school. It ranks 25th of 141 Oregon districts — the 82nd percentile — with a 4-star district rating. Overall, district students outperform the state in English language arts (49.0% vs 43.8%), math (35.9% vs 32.9%), and science (33.4% vs 30.6%). The completion side is weaker: district chronic absenteeism is 35.7% against the state's 33.5%, and the 70.0% graduation rate is well below the state's 83.0%.
Hillcrest Elementary School is the clearest academic standout, posting 55.7% ELA, 51.0% math, and 41.2% science — above district and state in every subject — along with the lowest chronic absenteeism at 22.4%. North Bay Elementary School is the biggest improver, rising from 1 star and the 29th percentile to 3 stars and the 56th percentile; it has the highest per-student spending ($20,191) and the smallest classes (16.0 students per teacher), though its scores fall sharply by 5th grade. North Bend Senior High School graduates 84.9%, above the state, but has 38.5% chronic absenteeism. Evergreen Virtual Academy is the largest school (794 students) yet has the lowest graduation rate (51.4%) and highest absenteeism (44.2%). North Bend Middle School is steady, with 28.1% absenteeism.
Two patterns matter most for families. Elementary grades are the district's strength — both elementaries beat the state in reading and math — while secondary math is a pressure point, with North Bend Middle at 30.7% and North Bend Senior High at 23.5%, below state all-grade figures. Money and class size also don't track results: Hillcrest spends less per student than North Bay and still scores higher with lower absenteeism. Among reporting schools, free/reduced lunch ranges from 81.51% to 82.95%, so these results come in a high-poverty context.
