Summary:
There is one high school in North Bend School District 13 on the Oregon coast: North Bend Senior High School, which serves grades 9–12 and enrolls 690 students. The district itself ranks 25th of 141 districts in Oregon, placing it in the 82nd percentile with a 4-star rating. The high school ranks 97th of 271 high schools in 2025–2026 — the 64th percentile, or 3 stars. Over three years the school moved from the 53rd percentile (2023–2024) to the 69th (2024–2025), then settled at the 64th, holding 3 stars throughout.
Graduation is the standout strength: 84.9% of students graduate, well above the district's 70.0% and slightly above the state's 83.0%. Test scores are mixed. In English Language Arts, 51.8% of students are proficient, better than the district's 49.0% and the state's 43.8%. Science proficiency is 38.5%, also above the district's 33.4% and the state's 30.6%. Mathematics, however, is the clear weak spot at 23.5% proficient — below the district's 35.9% and the state's 32.9%. The school's math gap mostly narrows at 11th grade, where the school sits at 23.5% versus the district's 24.2% and the state's 22.9%, but fewer than one in four students are still proficient overall.
Chronic absenteeism is 38.5%, higher than both the district's 35.7% and the state's 33.5% — a concern even alongside strong graduation numbers. About 82.03% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating substantial economic need, with per-student spending of $17,732 and a student-teacher ratio of 19.4. Families should take heart from the school's graduation and ELA results while keeping an eye on math proficiency and attendance as areas to watch.
