Summary

Oakridge Junior High School is a public middle school in Oakridge, Oregon, serving 77 students in grades 7-8. The school is part of the Oakridge School District 76, which is ranked 112 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oakridge Junior High School faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, significantly lower test scores compared to state and district averages, and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. The school's academic performance, as measured by OSAS test scores, is consistently below the state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio has fluctuated, which may impact the school's ability to provide personalized attention and support to its students.

While the school has increased its spending per student, this investment has not yet resulted in improved outcomes. The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, and its performance across different student subgroups is mixed. The school's leadership and the Oakridge School District 76 will need to develop a comprehensive strategy to address the root causes of these issues and support the academic and social-emotional needs of the students at Oakridge Junior High School.

Open Quote Excellent and caring staff. My child has excelled under their loving direction and instruction. In particular, the math and music programs are outstanding. The Science program is very good, incorporating a lot of technology into the instruction. The language arts and social studies programs use discussion and projects to engage student interest.
