Summary

Bend Technical Academy is a public high school serving grades 9–12 in Bend, Oregon, with about 116 students — one of the smallest high schools in the area — and it is part of Bend-LaPine Administrative School District 1. The district ranks well statewide (34th of 141, 76th percentile), but the school itself ranked 252nd of 271 Oregon high schools in 2025-26, the 7th percentile, after briefly reaching the 44th percentile in 2024-25. Only Realms High School, at 148 students, is comparably small; nearby high schools enroll 844 to 1,354 students.

Academically, Bend Technical Academy trails its district and state. On 2025-26 11th-grade state tests, 25% of students met the English language arts standard (district 35.3%, state 46%), science was 13.3% (district 24.2%, state 33.8%) and the lowest among nearby schools with reported scores, and math was under 5% (district 21.3%, state 22.9%), a result matched nearby only by Bend Senior High School. Its 2024-25 graduation rate of 75.7% is below the district's 85.8% and the state's 83.0%, and the lowest in the comparison group, behind Redmond Proficiency Academy (97.3%), Summit High School (96.8%), Caldera High School and Ridgeview High School (90.1% each), Realms High School (88.2%), and Bend Senior High School and Mountain View Senior High School (82.7% and 81.3%). Graduation has improved markedly, though, from 51.1% in 2021-22. Chronic absenteeism is 53.6%, the highest locally and roughly 20 points above district and state, down from 70.4% in 2020-21.

The school spends $26,236 per student, more than any nearby school and far above comprehensive Bend high schools like Caldera ($15,097) and Summit ($16,060), and its student-teacher ratio of 10.2 is the lowest in the group. Its free/reduced lunch rate of 46.55% is similar to other Bend high schools, so poverty does not explain the spending gap. In short: abundant resources and very small classes, but significant challenges in math proficiency, attendance, and graduation, with signs of gradual improvement.
