Summary

Crook County Middle School is a 6th- through 8th-grade school serving 616 students in Prineville, a central Oregon community about 17 miles from Redmond, and it is part of the Crook County School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 120th of 371 Oregon middle schools — the 68th percentile, with 3 stars — a sizable climb from the mid-2010s, when it sat near the 43rd to 48th percentile.

Academically, 47.8% of students met standards in English language arts, 35.5% in math, and 27.9% in science. The first two figures are above Oregon's state averages of 43.8% and 32.9%, while science trails the state's 30.6%. All three are below the district's own averages, even though that district ranks in Oregon's top 10%. Compared with nearby Redmond School District 2J schools, Elton Gregory Middle School and Obsidian Middle School, this school scores higher in every tested subject, and its 8th-grade results are especially strong — 45.1% proficient in math versus 25.8% at Elton Gregory, 28.3% at Obsidian, and 30.0% statewide.

The school's clearest strength is its effectiveness with low-income students, ranking in the 89th percentile in 2025–2026 and in the 90th and 97th percentiles the two years before. Special education is the clearest concern: 23rd percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026, and low in prior years as well. Chronic absenteeism, 32.2%, is better than the state's 33.5% but higher than Elton Gregory's 30.9% and Obsidian's 27.7%. Resources are comparatively strong — $18,343 per student and a 15.2 student–teacher ratio, versus 21.0 and 21.9 at the nearby schools.
