Summary

Glide Middle School is a small public school in the rural community of Glide, Oregon, serving grades 7–8 with 122 students as part of Glide School District 12. The district ranks 117th of 141 districts statewide (17th percentile, 1 star), and the school's 2025–26 rank is 291st of 371 (22nd percentile, 1 star). Glide Middle School ranked 58th percentile with 3 stars in 2016–17 and 52nd percentile with 3 stars in 2017–18, but has fallen in most years since. It is the smallest school in its comparison group, which ranges from 191 students at Oakland Middle School to 653 at John C Fremont Middle School, and it serves only grades 7–8 while nearby schools serve wider grade ranges, so all-grade comparisons are not perfectly aligned.

On 2025–26 state tests, 35.2% of Glide students met the standard in English language arts — above the district's 32.4% but below the state's 43.8%. Math is the clearest weakness at 14.7%, less than half the state rate and the lowest among nearby middle schools (Sutherlin Middle School 17.4%, Oakland 22.9%, John C Fremont 30.3%, Joseph Lane Middle School 30.7%). Science is also low at 18.0%, just under Sutherlin and far below Oakland (34.0%), John C Fremont (33.0%) and Joseph Lane (42.5%). Chronic absenteeism is another challenge: 36.0% of students were chronically absent in 2024–25, above the district's 33.6% and the state's 33.5%, and the rate has stayed in the mid-30s since 2021–22. Nearby, Oakland Middle is at 21.4%.

Glide spent $16,510 per student in 2024–25, the lowest among these schools (Oakland $21,149, Sutherlin $18,767, Joseph Lane $18,044, John C Fremont $17,669), though its student-teacher ratio of 16.2 is similar. Spending alone does not explain outcomes: Sutherlin spends more yet performs similarly in math and science, while Oakland spends the most and performs best. Glide's measured effectiveness is relatively stronger for low-income students (34th percentile, 2 stars) than for the school overall (22nd percentile), and results for other student groups have swung year to year; with only 122 students, such figures can shift a lot. Free/reduced-price lunch data for Glide is unavailable.
