Summary

Sunset School is a grades 3–6 elementary school serving 380 students in Coos Bay, a coastal community in southwestern Oregon, as part of Coos Bay School District 9. The district ranks 90th of 141 districts statewide (36th percentile, 2 stars), but Sunset School ranks 661st of 709 Oregon elementary schools (7th percentile, 0 stars) in 2025–2026 — placing it well below its own district. That low position is not new: the school has stayed in the 6th–8th percentile with 0 stars every year since 2021–2022, after reaching the 31st percentile in 2015–2016, which points to a long-term slide rather than a single bad year.

Proficiency is low across every core subject. In 2025–2026, 23.7% of Sunset students met standards in English language arts, 15.2% in math, and 14.1% in science, compared with 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6% statewide. Grade-level results are weakest in 3rd grade ELA (15.9%) and in upper-grade math, where 5th grade is 11.6% and 6th grade is 10.0%. The most direct comparison is Millicoma School, the other grades 3–6 school in the same district, about four miles away. Millicoma ranks 362nd of 709 (49th percentile, 2 stars) and outperforms Sunset by roughly 15–21 percentage points in all-grade ELA, math, and science.

Chronic absenteeism is another clear difference. Sunset's rate was 44.7% in 2024–2025, above the district (40.4%) and state (33.5%), and higher than same-district peers such as Eastside School (31.2%), Madison Elementary School (35.6%), and Lighthouse Charter School (18.2%). Sunset also spends $21,676 per student — more than Millicoma, Eastside, Madison, and Lighthouse — yet posts the lowest proficiency among Coos Bay schools with comparable data. Its free/reduced lunch rate, 56.32%, is lower than that of nearby Hillcrest Elementary School (81.51%) and Coquille Valley Elementary (87.57%), both of which score above state averages in reading, math, and science. Statewide subgroup rankings place most student groups in the bottom quartile, suggesting broad-based rather than isolated challenges.
