Summary:

Zip code 97132 has two high schools serving grades 9–12 within Newberg School District 29J: Newberg Senior High School (1,244 students) and Catalyst High School (173 students), together enrolling 1,417 students. The district ranks 20th of 141 in Oregon (86th percentile, 4 stars), but the two schools show sharply different outcomes.

Newberg Senior High is the larger school (about 87.8% of enrollment) and stronger overall. Its graduation rate is 92.6%, above the district (86.4%) and state (83.0%). Chronic absenteeism is 34.2%, near the state average (33.5%) but above district (29.4%). ELA proficiency is 50.5%, above district (47.8%) and state (43.8%). Math proficiency is 26.8%, below district all-grades (42.2%) and state all-grades (32.9%), though its 11th-grade math score (26.8%) is above district 11th-grade (25.8%) and state 11th-grade (22.9%). Science is 33.3%, slightly below district (35.0%) but above state (30.6%). Its 2025–2026 rank is 102nd of 271 (62nd percentile, 3 stars), down from 74th of 268 (72nd percentile, 4 stars) in 2023–2024. Free/reduced lunch is 47.75%, per-student spending is $17,497, and student-teacher ratio is 20.6.

Catalyst High, the smaller school (about 12.2%), faces major challenges. Graduation rate is 66.3%, well below district and state. Chronic absenteeism is 66.9%, roughly two-thirds of students, far above district (29.4%) and state (33.5%). ELA is 28.6%, math 15.4%, and science 24.1%, all below district and state. Its 2025–2026 rank is 208th of 271 (23rd percentile, 1 star), but that is up from 243rd of 268 (9th percentile, 0 stars) in 2023–2024 and 250th of 270 (7th percentile, 0 stars) in 2024–2025. Free/reduced lunch is 67.05% (vs 47.75% at Newberg Senior), per-student spending is $5,185 (vs $17,497), and student-teacher ratio is 49.4 (vs 20.6). In short, one school has solid graduation and ELA results but math weakness, while the other serves a higher-poverty population, has very high absenteeism and low outcomes, yet shows recent improvement.
