Summary

South Wasco County Middle/High School is a small public school serving 138 students in grades 6–12 in the rural town of Maupin, Oregon, where it is the only school within 20 miles and is part of South Wasco County School District 1.

Because there are no nearby schools to compare with, the most useful benchmarks are the school's own district and Oregon overall. The school's state ranking has swung widely, from the 85th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 54th percentile in 2024–2025, then down to the 29th percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026 — a bottom-third result statewide. In 2025–2026 state testing, 35.0% of students met the standard in English language arts (vs. 38.5% district, 43.8% state), 21.7% in math (vs. 30.8% district, 32.9% state), and 28.6% in science (vs. 30.9% district, 30.6% state). Math is the clearest weakness, especially in 6th grade at 10.0% compared with 29.7% statewide. The one academic bright spot is 8th-grade science at 30.4%, above the state's 27.7%. With only 138 students, a single class or staff change can move these numbers sharply.

The latest graduation rate is a genuine positive: 92.3% in 2024–2025, well above the state's 83.0%, though the two prior years (75.0% and 70.6%) fell below state. Chronic absenteeism is the standout challenge — 46.9% of students in 2024–2025 versus 33.5% statewide, and every recent year has been well above state. Another notable internal pattern is a large gap in how well the school serves students by gender: in 2024–2025, female students ranked at the 67th percentile with 3 stars while male students ranked at the 7th percentile with 0 stars. The school also serves a high-needs population, with 90.58% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025 and $30,910 in spending per student, alongside a student-teacher ratio of 15.8.
