Summary:
Zip code 97003 contains exactly one high school in this data set: Community School, a grades 9–12 school with 149 students located at 1841 SW Merlo Dr in Beaverton, Oregon. It belongs to Beaverton School District 48J, a district ranked 19th of 141 in Oregon, in the 87th percentile with 4 stars. Because only one high school serves this area, the profile below is a case study rather than a comparison among local schools.
The most striking feature is the gap between the district and the school itself. Community School ranked 271 of 271 schools in 2025–2026 (0th percentile, 0 stars), 267 of 270 in 2024–2025 (1st percentile, 0 stars), and 242 of 268 in 2023–2024 (10th percentile, 1 star). Test proficiency sits far below benchmarks: ELA 12.5%, versus 53.4% for the district and 43.8% statewide; math under 5%, versus 43.7% and 32.9%; science 5%, versus 37.7% and 30.6%. Eleventh-grade results are nearly identical to the all-grade results, indicating high school testing is essentially driven by 11th grade.
Other outcomes point the same direction. The graduation rate is 64.2%, compared with 88.9% in the district and 83.0% statewide, and chronic absenteeism is 80.0%, versus 28.7% and 33.5%. About half of students (50.34%) qualify for free or reduced lunch. Per-student spending is $42,043 with a student-teacher ratio of 9.6, suggesting small classes and substantial investment alongside low measured outcomes — possibly reflecting specialized or alternative programming that this data cannot confirm. With only 149 students, percentages can swing widely, and math is reported only as under 5%, so treat these figures as a snapshot.
