Roberts High School

Public Grades 7-12
Summary

Roberts High School is a school of 515 students serving grades 7–12 at 3620 State St SE in Salem, Oregon, part of the Salem-Keizer School District 24J — the only school in its comparison group that includes middle school grades, since every nearby school serves grades 9–12. Its state ranking has been consistently low for a decade: across ten reported years (2011-12 through 2023-24), it never rose above the 9th percentile and earned 0 stars every year. Its most recent comparison ranked it 259th of 268 schools (3rd percentile) in 2023-24, and no newer comparative ranking is on file for Roberts, while every nearby school has one.

Outcomes here are far below nearby schools. Roberts' 2024-25 graduation rate was 17.1%, against 79.7% for the district and 83.0% statewide, and roughly one-fifth to one-quarter of every peer, including McKay High School (83.1%) and North Salem High School (81.8%), the lowest-performing comprehensive schools in the same district. Chronic absenteeism is the highest in the comparison set at 78.0%, versus 65.6% at McKay, 43.1% districtwide and 33.5% statewide. In 2025-26 testing, Roberts was last in the group in English language arts (13.3%) and math (7.3%) and second-to-last in science (16.9%). Eleventh-grade results sit at the floor: under 5% proficient in ELA and math, and 6.3% in science.

Roberts spends more per student than any school in the group — $43,117 in 2024-25, more than double the roughly $19,300–$20,600 of the comprehensive high schools — with the smallest classes (12.3 students per teacher, about half the peer range). The data do not show that investment converting into the reported outcomes, though there are bright spots: 8th-grade science proficiency (34.5%) beats both the district (19.8%) and the state (27.7%), the only metric where Roberts outperforms both, and its special education subgroup ranked at the 55th percentile with 3 stars in 2018-19, its only above-median result on record. Chronic absenteeism has also fallen 4.3 points over two years, and the 17.1% graduation rate is its best in five years.
