Summary:

Redmond School District 2J in Central Oregon includes 13 schools — eight elementary (K–5), two middle (6–8), and three high schools — serving 6,889 students, with one high school, Redmond Proficiency Academy, also serving grades 6–12. The Redmond School District 2J ranks 45th of 141 Oregon districts (68th percentile, 3 stars) and is slightly above the state in ELA (45.4% vs. 43.8%) and math (33.9% vs. 32.9%), but below the state in science (26.8% vs. 30.6%).

Elementary schools generally outperform the secondary grades. Tumalo Community School is the clear academic standout, leading in ELA (70.7%) and math (68.3%) — roughly 25 and 34 points above the district — with an 89th percentile, 4-star ranking in 2025–26 and a 5-star year in 2024–25. Sage Elementary School (55.5% ELA, 43.7% math, 40.0% science) has been 4-star for three years, while Tom McCall Elementary School posts the district's highest science score (47.0%). John Tuck Elementary School is strong in ELA and math, but its science is 20.4%. Among high schools, Ridgeview High School leads in ELA at 54.7% but has the district's lowest science (16.2%), and Redmond Proficiency Academy has the highest graduation rate (97.3%) with the lowest spending per student ($5,450); its 11th-grade scores are suppressed by the state.

Several schools need support. Hugh Hartman Elementary (31.8% ELA, 26.8% math), M A Lynch Elementary School (38.1% ELA, 18.2% science), and Vern Patrick Elementary School (37.3% ELA, 30.7% math) rank at the 31st, 40th, and 39th percentiles — below the median. Elton Gregory Middle School has a science score of just 16.8%, and Redmond High School remains below median at the 35th percentile. All three high schools have chronic absenteeism above both district and state, from 36.2% to 41.9%. Free/reduced lunch rates run about 73% to 85% district-wide, and spending and class size show no simple link to results.
