Summary
Coburg Community Charter School is a K–8 charter school of 226 students in Eugene, Oregon, part of Eugene School District 4J, and it currently ranks 74th of 709 Oregon elementary schools — 90th percentile, 4 stars, or roughly the top 10% of the state. It is the only school in its comparison group serving grades 6–8; every nearby school ends at grade 5.
Academically, Coburg performs about 30 points above the state in every subject: 74.1% proficient in English language arts, 62.7% in math, and 58.3% in science, versus state rates of 43.8%, 32.9%, and 30.6%. The nearest-ranked neighbor, Gilham Elementary School, trails by roughly 25 points in ELA, 18 in math, and 20 in science, and no other nearby school reaches even the 70th percentile statewide. The middle grades are a particular strength: 8th-grade ELA is at least 95% proficient (a state-suppressed figure, so the true value may be higher), with 8th-grade math at 78.3% and science at 65.2%. The one soft spot is 4th-grade math at 38.1%, slightly below both district and state.
Chronic absenteeism is the school's most striking operational advantage: 12.9%, compared with 33.0% for the district and 33.5% statewide, and the lowest in the comparison group. Coburg also spends far less — $13,697 per student, roughly $10,500 below the nearby average — while its student-teacher ratio of 18.0 is somewhat above the neighbor average of about 16.7. After a 2023–2024 peak at the 95th percentile, the school has settled at 89th–90th, still firmly top-tier. Note that free/reduced-lunch rates are not reported for Coburg, so its socioeconomic makeup is unknown.
