Summary

Academy of Arts and Academics (A3) is a small public high school serving grades 9–12 in Springfield, Oregon, with 231 students — a fraction of the size of nearby comprehensive high schools like Thurston High School (1,215) and Springfield High School (1,229) in Springfield School District 19, or Sheldon High School and South Eugene High School in neighboring Eugene School District 4J.

Academically, A3 has climbed steadily. It now ranks in the 72nd percentile of Oregon high schools with 4 stars, up from roughly the 50th percentile a decade ago — making it the strongest performer in its own district, which ranks in the 35th percentile statewide. Its 11th-grade English language arts proficiency is 66.7%, the highest in this comparison group, beating its district by nearly 40 points, the state by about 21 points, and edging out both Eugene 4J comprehensive high schools. Its graduation rate is 100.0%, also the best among comparable schools. About 65% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch — roughly the same share as Thurston and Sheldon — so these results aren't coming from an unusually affluent student body, and low-income students here rank above the school's overall standing.

Two areas stand out as concerns. Math proficiency is reported as under 5%, far below the district (15.1%) and the state (22.9%), and the spread between A3's reading and math results is by far the widest in the group. Chronic absenteeism sits at 40.0%, close to the district average but still above Oregon's 33.5%, though it has dropped about 10 points from its recent peak. The school also reports the lowest per-student spending in the set ($8,742), a figure worth reading as a rough signal rather than an exact comparison.
