Summary:
Rogue River School District 35 is a small Oregon district with four schools serving a combined 1,071 students across grades K–12, and it has no standalone middle school — middle grades are split between a K–6 elementary and a 7–12 junior/senior high. The district ranks 59th of 141 Oregon districts, at the 58th percentile with 3 stars. Families here can choose among Rogue River Elementary School (K–6, 388 students), Rogue River Junior/Senior High (7–12, 339), Rivers Edge Academy Charter School (K–12 alternative, 238), and South Valley Academy (3–12 alternative, 106).
The clearest standout is Rogue River Junior/Senior High, which rose to 48 of 271 schools (82nd percentile, 4 stars) from 198 of 270 (27th percentile, 1 star) the year before. Its all-grade ELA (45.5%) and science (36.4%), plus its 11th grade scores in ELA, math, and science, all beat district and state marks. Rivers Edge Academy Charter School posts a 100% graduation rate versus the district's 81.3%, the strongest all-grade ELA at 46.7%, and does it on the lowest per-student spending ($9,168 versus $22,887 at the junior/senior high). At Rogue River Elementary School, 4th grade ELA (53.1%) is a bright spot above district and state.
Math is the district-wide weak spot: no school reaches the state's all-grade math proficiency of 32.9%, with the elementary leading at 26.2% and South Valley Academy far below at 7.5%. Absenteeism is high at two schools — 41.4% at the elementary and 40.2% at South Valley, both above the state's 33.5%, while the junior/senior high is at 31.5%. Rivers Edge's current chronic absenteeism is not reported, though its prior rate was 6.2%. South Valley also has the lowest graduation rate (71.0%) and the highest student-teacher ratio (26.5). Many values are suppressed and should be treated as unknown rather than as zero.
