Summary:
ZIP code 97365 in Newport, Oregon is served by five schools — two elementary, one middle, and two high — all within the Lincoln County School District, and together they enroll 1,731 students spanning kindergarten through 12th grade.
Newport High School is the largest school (669 students) and the academic bright spot: its graduation rate is 92.4%, above the district's 88.1% and the state's 83.0%, and its ELA (50.7%) and science (43.4%) proficiency lead the area. Math is its gap at 20.4%, below the state's 32.9%. Compass School is a 19-student outlier in both directions — the highest math proficiency (58.8%) and smallest classes (9.5 student-teacher ratio), but the lowest graduation rate (5.6%) and highest chronic absenteeism (43.8%), with many figures suppressed by the state. With so few students, those percentages can swing widely. Sam Case Elementary has the best attendance in the group at 26.2% chronic absenteeism, well below the district (39.1%) and state (33.5%), plus the strongest elementary math (30%).
Newport Middle School is the lowest-ranked local school (24th percentile, 1 star), with ELA at 32%, math at 20.1%, and the area's weakest science at 16.1%. Yaquina View Elementary serves K–2, so it has no current test scores; it has the highest per-student spending ($23,035) and a low student-teacher ratio (14.6), with absenteeism (35.3%) above the state. Poverty is a shared context: free/reduced lunch runs about 90–91.55% at every reporting school.
