Summary
Sublimity School is a K–8 school with 366 students in the small Oregon community of Sublimity, part of the North Santiam School District 29J. Its results stand out sharply from its district: in 2025–2026, Sublimity ranked 107th of 709 Oregon elementary schools (85th percentile, 4 stars), while the district ranked 77th of 141 (45th percentile, 2 stars). In every tested subject, the school's all-grade proficiency is well above both district and state — 60.9% in English language arts (compared with 41.6% district and 43.8% state), 53.1% in math (compared with 28.9% and 32.9%), and 41.2% in science (compared with 27.7% and 30.6%).
Compared with its same-district peers, Sublimity is far ahead: Mari-Linn School posts 34.5% in ELA and 21.2% in math, and Stayton Elementary School (grades K–3) posts 34.7% and 30.6%. Several nearby schools outside the district also perform well. Pratum Elementary School and Victor Point Elementary School post higher raw all-grade scores in some subjects, but Sublimity's state rank (107th) edges Victor Point's (124th) and outranks Cloverdale Elementary School (122nd), Turner Elementary School (175th), Silver Crest Elementary School (395th), Aumsville Elementary School (376th), and Centennial Elementary School (521st).
Attendance is a relative strength: 25.3% of students were chronically absent in 2024–2025, below the district (35.3%) and state (33.5%), though Pratum (14.1%), Victor Point (11.9%), Cloverdale (18.9%), and Turner (21.0%) do better. The school also reports a high-poverty population — 69.13% free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025, up sharply from earlier years, a jump that may reflect reporting or eligibility changes — while spending $15,885 per student, less than several nearby schools. Grade-level results are strong across the board, with ELA peaking at 71.1% in 8th grade and math at 66.7% in 4th grade; science (41.2%) is above district and state but remains a relative area for growth. After a dip to 69th percentile in 2022–2023, the school has rebounded, suggesting durable performance rather than a one-year result.
