Summary

Destinations Career Academy of Oregon is a small public high school in Prineville, Oregon, serving grades 9–12 with 79 students; it belongs to Mitchell School District 55 even though its address places it near Crook County schools. Its statewide ranking has climbed quickly, from 123rd of 258 (52nd percentile) in 2022–2023 to 21st of 271 (92nd percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–2026.

Test results are the school's strongest point. In 2025–2026, 60% of students were proficient in English language arts, 67.9% in math, and 64.3% in science — well above Oregon's 43.8% ELA, 32.9% math, and 30.6% science rates. Ridgeview High School posted 54.7% ELA, 27.6% math, and 16.2% science; Redmond High School posted 30% ELA, 21.6% math, and 28% science; and Redmond Proficiency Academy posted 51.1% ELA, 26.3% math, and 27.3% science. Test scores for Crook County High School and Pioneer Secondary Alternative High School are suppressed by the state, so they cannot be compared directly.

Other measures look very different. The 2024–2025 graduation rate was 58.3%, far below Oregon's 83.0% and below Crook County High School (98.4%), Redmond Proficiency Academy (97.3%), Pioneer Secondary Alternative High School (97.3%), Ridgeview High School (90.1%), and Redmond High School (88.3%). Chronic absenteeism was 73.0%, versus 33.5% statewide. Reported per-student spending is $288 and the student-teacher ratio is 31.3, both far outside the range of nearby schools. With only 79 students, year-to-year swings are easier to produce, and some nearby data are suppressed rather than low.
