Summary

Elmira High School is a public high school located in Elmira, Oregon, serving 401 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Fern Ridge School District 28J, which is ranked 48 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Elmira High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 15th out of 292 Oregon high schools in 2015-2016 to a low of 131st out of 270 in 2024-2025. The school's performance has been mixed, with strong results for male students, ranking as high as 12th out of 216 in 2023-2024, but more inconsistent results for female students, ranking as low as 147th out of 211 in 2024-2025. Elmira High School has also performed well for Hispanic students, ranking as high as 30th out of 123 in 2021-2022. However, the school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.8% to 39.5% in recent years, which may be an area of concern.

Compared to nearby schools, Network Charter School and South Eugene High School, Elmira High School's performance is generally on par or slightly below. However, the school significantly outperforms Junction City High School. Despite having a relatively high per-student spending of $20,373 in 2022-2023, Elmira High School's student-teacher ratio of 18.6 in 2023-2024 is slightly higher than the state average, suggesting that the additional funding may not be directly translating to smaller class sizes.
