Schools in Zip Code 97416

ZIP code 97416 is served by a single school: Camas Valley School, an alternative school in Camas Valley, Oregon that serves students in grades PK–12 and enrolls 207 students. It is the only school in Camas Valley School District 21J, so district figures mirror the school's, and the only meaningful comparisons are to state averages. The completion picture is a strength: the 2024–2025 graduation rate is 88.2%, which is 5.2 percentage points above Oregon's 83.0%. Chronic absenteeism is 33.3%, essentially level with the state's 33.5% — still about one in three students. The school reports 90.82% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch, spends $20,936 per student, and has a student-teacher ratio of 10.9, describing a small, high-need, relatively well-resourced setting.

Test results are more mixed. In 2025–2026, all-grades ELA proficiency is 29.3% versus 43.8% statewide, math is 16.3% versus 32.9%, and science is 21.1% versus 30.6%. Mathematics is the weakest area: 5th grade is 6.7%, 6th grade is 5.9%, and 11th grade math is under 5% (a bound, not an exact figure). ELA varies widely by grade — 7th grade stands out at 56.3%, 11.0 points above the state's 45.3%, while 3rd grade is 7.7% and 5th grade is 13.3%. Science is similarly uneven: 11th grade is 36.4%, above the state's 33.8%, while 5th grade is 12.5% and 8th grade is 18.2%.

Because one school serves PK–12 with 207 students, individual grade cohorts are small, and a single student can shift a grade-level rate by several percentage points. Parents should treat those percentages as volatile and look at multi-year trends rather than a single year's results.
