High Schools in North Marion School District 15

High schools located in North Marion School District 15 include one campus: North Marion High School in Aurora, Oregon, serving grades 9–12 with 564 students. Because it is the district’s only high school, there are no other local high schools to compare it with; district high school figures often mirror the school itself, especially for 11th-grade results.

For 2025–2026, 27.2% of students were proficient in English Language Arts, 6.8% in Mathematics, and 14.2% in Science. Those figures trail the state, where ELA is 43.8% across all grades and 46.0% in 11th grade, Math is 32.9% across all grades and 22.9% in 11th grade, and Science is 30.6% across all grades and 33.8% in 11th grade. The school’s all-grade results are identical to its 11th-grade results in each subject. In 2024–2025, the graduation rate was 73.9%, below the state’s 83.0%, and chronic absenteeism was 37.0%, above the district and state rates of 33.5%. The school also reported 87.41% free/reduced lunch, $20,794 per-student spending, and a 16.4:1 student-teacher ratio.

The school’s ranking was 246th of 271 ranked schools in 2025–2026, at the 9th percentile with 0 stars; three years earlier it was 216th of 268, at the 19th percentile with 1 star. The district rank is 133rd of 141, at the 6th percentile with 0 stars. Math is the deepest academic weakness, with a 26.1-point gap to the all-grade state rate. ELA is the strongest core subject but still 16.6 points below the all-grade state rate, and science is about 16–20 points behind depending on the comparison. District all-grade math is 16.0%, higher than the high school’s 6.8%, suggesting lower grades lift the district average. This is a high-need, relatively high-spending school with low proficiency, a below-state graduation rate, and above-state chronic absenteeism; the data does not establish causation. There are no state benchmarks provided for free/reduced lunch, per-student spending, or student-teacher ratio, and no multi-year trends for graduation, absenteeism, or test scores.
