Summary

Astoria Middle School is a public middle school in Astoria, Oregon, serving 419 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Astoria School District 1, which is ranked 56 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past 10 years, Astoria Middle School's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from a high of 115 out of 381 Oregon middle schools in 2014-2015 to a low of 268 out of 380 in 2022-2023. The school's overall SchoolDigger rating has remained at 2 or 3 stars out of 5 during this period. Key areas of concern include high chronic absenteeism rates, below-average test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and significant performance gaps between different student subgroups.

Interestingly, Seaside Middle School and Warrenton Middle School, which are nearby schools in the Seaside School District 10 and Warrenton-Hammond School District 30 respectively, spend less per student than Astoria Middle School, yet their academic performance is not significantly worse. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes at Astoria Middle School.
