Harrisburg Middle School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Oregon middle schools, with a ranking between 223 and 342 over the past 10 years, and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of that time period. The school faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 26.0% to 38.1%, and consistently lower test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to state and district averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA ranged from 15.4% to 28.8%, compared to the state average of 41.6% to 46.7%.

These schools are part of larger, higher-performing Eugene School District 4J and Springfield School District 19, which may contribute to their stronger academic outcomes.
