Summary:
ZIP code 97086, which covers the Happy Valley area of Clackamas County, contains exactly one high school: Clackamas Middle College, a grades 9–12 school with 305 students in North Clackamas School District 12. Because it is the only high school in the ZIP, there is no local peer school to compare it with — families should instead judge it against its district and the state as a whole. The "Middle College" name typically signals an early-college or dual-credit model, though the record does not confirm the school's specific program structure.
By nearly every measure in the record, this school outperforms both its district and Oregon. It ranks 20th of 271 Oregon high schools for 2025–2026 — the 93rd percentile, a 5-star rating — while its own district sits at the 66th percentile with 3 stars. Its graduation rate is 97.4%, compared with 87.9% in the district and 83.0% statewide. Chronic absenteeism is 11.1%, roughly one-third of the district's 30.5% and the state's 33.5%. In English language arts, 82.4% of students are proficient — nearly double the district and state (about 44% each). Science is 52.9% proficient, far ahead of district and state, and math is 40.0%, ahead of both by about 7 points on the all-grades view. The three-year ranking history tells a consistent story: never below the 83rd percentile.
A few caveats matter. Math is the school's softest subject relative to its own strong ELA results. The reported "all grades" scores match the 11th-grade scores exactly, meaning these figures reflect one tested grade cohort rather than a broad 9–12 average — so year-to-year results can swing, as they did when the school dipped to 4 stars in 2024–2025. The free-or-reduced-lunch figure is unknown, so the economic context behind these outcomes cannot be assessed. The record also shows 41.2 students per teacher and $17,546 per student, with no district or state benchmark for either.
