Summary

Bend Senior High School is a public high school serving 1,232 students in grades 9-12 in Bend, Oregon. The school is part of the Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1, which is ranked 28 out of 140 school districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

However, Bend Senior High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 41 out of 301 Oregon high schools in 2013-2014 to 264 out of 270 in 2024-2025. The school consistently underperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for 11th-grade assessments in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in 2024-2025, only 14.1% of 11th-grade students at Bend Senior High School were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 37.9% for the district and 44.4% for the state. The school also has relatively low four-year graduation rates, ranging from 81.3% to 85.3% in recent years, and high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 33.2% to 39.7%.

While Bend Senior High School is part of the same school district as Caldera High School, Summit High School, and Mountain View Senior High School, it consistently underperforms these neighboring schools across various metrics, including academic achievement, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. This suggests that there may be unique challenges or factors specific to Bend Senior High School that are contributing to its relatively poorer performance compared to its peers within the same district.
