The 97355 zip code area of Lebanon, Oregon is home to 9 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from diverse backgrounds. While the district faces challenges with low graduation rates and high chronic absenteeism, there are standout schools like Sand Ridge Charter School that consistently rank among the top in the state and demonstrate strong academic performance.
Sand Ridge Charter School is a shining example, with a 5-star rating and significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the Lebanon Community School District and the state of Oregon averages. Another high-performing school is Lacomb School, which ranks in the top 250 elementary schools in Oregon and has strong academic results, particularly in English Language Arts.
However, the district as a whole faces significant challenges, with Lebanon High School having a 81.8% four-year graduation rate, which is below the state average. Additionally, all schools in the data set had a chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%, significantly higher than the state average. The proficiency rates for Lebanon High School students on the OSAS assessments were well below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and the middle and elementary schools in the district also had lower proficiency rates compared to state averages. These issues, coupled with the high percentages of economically disadvantaged students in the district, suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to address the challenges faced by these students.
