Summary
Southridge High School is a 9–12 school in Beaverton, Oregon, serving about 1,430 students in Beaverton School District 48J, a district that ranks 19th of 141 statewide (87th percentile, 4 stars). Southridge itself ranks 116th of 271 schools in 2025–26 — the 57th percentile, with 3 stars. Its history is unusually up and down: it was 9th statewide in 2016–17, dropped to the 31st percentile in 2023–24, rebounded to the 77th percentile in 2024–25, and settled at 57th this year.
Academically, results are mixed. At 11th grade, ELA proficiency is 45.1%, close to the state’s 46.0% but below the district’s 51.2%. Math is 28.5%, above the state’s 22.9% but below the district’s 32.3%. Science is 29.9%, below both the district (38.6%) and state (33.8%). The graduation rate was 84.4% in 2024–25 — above the state’s 83.0% but roughly 3–5 points below the district, where it has sat for years. The clearest red flag is chronic absenteeism: 44.2% in 2024–25, about 15.5 points above the district (28.7%) and 10.7 points above the state (33.5%).
Comparisons with neighbors are telling. Beaverton High School looks almost identical — similar enrollment, ELA and science proficiency, 84.0% graduation, and 45.6% absenteeism — though Southridge’s math is stronger. Sunset High School, Mountainside High School, International School of Beaverton, and Arts and Communication Magnet Academy post stronger proficiency, graduation, and attendance, while Southridge is clearly ahead of Aloha High School, Community School, and Creekside Community High School. Resources aren’t the gap: Southridge spends $20,639 per student with a 17.8 student-teacher ratio, more favorable than several higher-performing neighbors. Subgroup results also swing year to year, with the low-income subgroup near the bottom in two of the last three years (24th percentile in 2025–26) and gifted/talented falling from the 77th to the 33rd percentile. Given the volatility, single-year judgments deserve caution.
