Summary

Hillsboro Online Academy is a K–12 alternative school serving 322 students at 452 NE 3rd Ave in Hillsboro, Oregon, part of Hillsboro School District 1J. Its district is mid-ranked statewide — 69th of 141 in Oregon, the 51st percentile — while nearby districts such as Tigard-Tualatin School District 23J, Beaverton School District 48J, and Portland School District 1J rank higher. In size it sits in the middle of a group of nearby alternative and online programs: similar to Metropolitan Learning Center (319 students), smaller than FLEX Online School (404), and larger than Scappoose Online Academy, Tigard-Tualatin Virtual Academy, and Heron Creek Program.

The school's strongest recent story is completion and attendance. Its 2024–25 graduation rate was 88.4%, above Oregon's 83.0% and close to its district's 90.4%, up from 70.3% in 2022–23. Chronic absenteeism fell to 31.8% — equal to the district and below the state's 33.5% — from 44.3% two years earlier. All-grade test scores exceed both district and state in every subject: ELA 49.7%, math 37.5%, and science 48.1%. Science is a signature strength, running well above district and state, with 5th, 8th, and 11th grade science results also ahead. Elementary grades are strong across the board, with 3rd through 6th grade ELA and math above district and state.

Among nearby virtual and alternative schools, Hillsboro Online Academy posts the highest reported school-level graduation rate (Scappoose Online 69.2%, Metropolitan 73.3%, FLEX 61.0%, Tigard-Tualatin Virtual 60.7%) and lower chronic absenteeism than Tigard-Tualatin Virtual (54.1%), FLEX (55.6%), and Metropolitan (34.1%) — while spending $16,928 per student, less than Metropolitan ($26,619), Tigard-Tualatin Virtual ($23,584), and FLEX ($19,500). ELA is the relative weak spot: above district and state overall, but below those same schools, with 7th grade ELA (31.6%) and 11th grade ELA (38.9%) below state. With 322 students across K–12, grade-level percentages can swing widely, and some comparison data is not reported.
