Summary

Scio High School is a small, rural public high school serving grades 9–12 in Scio, Oregon (Linn County), with 227 students — the smallest comprehensive high school in its area. It is the high school of Scio School District 95, which ranks 44th of 141 Oregon districts. On the state's 2025–26 measure, the school ranked 115th of 271 high schools, a 58th-percentile, 3-star standing.

Scio's strengths are real for a school of its size and budget. Its graduation rate of 89.5% beats the state's 83.0% and its own district's 79.3%, and has exceeded the district every year on record. ELA proficiency (44.7%) and science (36.2%) sit at or above state averages (43.8% and 30.6%). The school also spends the least per student of any comprehensive neighbor — $16,479 — and has the leanest student–teacher ratio at 14.8, better than Stayton High School (17.1), Cascade Senior High School (17.3), Lebanon High School (20.8), South Albany High School (21.9), West Albany High School (23.2), and far better than Jefferson High School (31.8).

Two concerns stand out. Math proficiency is 23.9%, roughly 9 points below the state and about 14 points below the district — notable, since nearby West Albany, Cascade, and Stayton all match or exceed their districts in math. Chronic absenteeism is 42.3%, well above the state's 33.5% and higher than Cascade (18.5) and West Albany (29.4), though better than Jefferson (51.3) and Lebanon (48.6). Free/reduced lunch enrollment has climbed from 38.5% to 63.0% over three years, and year-to-year results swing widely with small class sizes of about 55–60 students per grade, so a single year's numbers deserve caution.
