Summary

Boring Middle School is a grade 6–8 school in Boring, Oregon, a community east of Portland, serving 427 students as part of Oregon Trail School District 46. It ranks 71st of 371 Oregon middle schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 81st percentile with 4 stars — its highest ranking since 2016–2017 and above every nearby middle school in the comparison group, including Happy Valley Middle School (71st percentile), Cedar Ridge Middle School (69th), and Rock Creek Middle School (64th).

Academically, Boring posts the strongest results among nearby schools. Its all-grade English language arts proficiency is 58.7%, well above the district's 51.9% and the state's 43.8%, and higher than any nearby campus. Math proficiency is 39.4% and science is 36.6%, both above state averages and ahead of nearby schools. Notably, the school achieves this while spending $15,045 per student — less than every nearby school listed, which range from $18,389 to $21,911 — and with a student-teacher ratio of 22.4, higher than the nearby range of 13.4 to 20.3.
