Summary
Rivers Edge Academy Charter School is an alternative K–12 charter school in Rogue River, Oregon, serving 238 students in Rogue River School District 35, a 3-star district that ranks 59th of 141 Oregon districts (58th percentile). The nearby comparison schools are all alternative programs: South Valley Academy, in the same district just 0.28 miles away; Crater Lake Academy, 17.76 miles away; and Logos Charter School, 15.61 miles away.
Completion and engagement are this school's standout strengths. Rivers Edge reported a 100.0% graduation rate in both 2024–25 and 2023–24, above its district (81.3%) and the state (83.0%), and the highest among nearby alternatives (South Valley Academy 71.0%, Crater Lake Academy 92.0%, Logos Charter School 97.0%). Chronic absenteeism at the school was 6.2% in 2023–24, compared with 36.6% districtwide and 34.3% statewide. Reading and science are also relative strengths: all-grade English language arts proficiency is 46.7% (district 41.3%, state 43.8%), and science is 34.1%, above the district, state, and every nearby alternative. Eleventh-grade results are especially strong — 69.2% proficient in ELA, 28.6% in math, and 50.0% in science, leading nearby schools and exceeding district and state in all three subjects. Class sizes are comparatively small too, with a student-teacher ratio of 19.5 versus South Valley Academy's 26.5, Crater Lake Academy's 21.9, and Logos Charter School's 20.0.
Math is the main academic concern. All-grade math proficiency is 21.3%, slightly below the district (22.6%) and well below the state (32.9%); Logos Charter School is the closest academic peer overall but posts higher math at 30.6%. Some grade-level math results are notably low, including 6th grade at 8.3%. A few important details remain unknown: Rivers Edge has no reported free/reduced-lunch percentage, the 2024–25 school-level chronic absenteeism value is not shown, and several grade-level scores are suppressed for privacy, especially in grades 5 and 7 — those should be treated as unknown rather than as zero or as signs of weakness.
