Summary:
ZIP code 97462, in and around Oakland, Oregon, contains exactly one public high school — Oakland High School, which serves grades 9–12 with 202 students as part of Oakland School District 1. With only one high school in the area, there are no local peers to compare it against, so the most useful benchmarks are the district, the state, and the school's own past years.
Oakland High's strongest results are in completion, attendance, and English. Its graduation rate was 91.2%, matching the district and 8.2 percentage points above the state's 83.0%. Chronic absenteeism was 22.9%, which is 10.6 points better than the state's 33.5%, though slightly above the district's 21.5%. In English language arts, 56.3% of students were proficient — above the district's 51.1% all-grade rate, the state's 46.0% 11th-grade rate, and the state's 43.8% all-grade rate. Science proficiency was 31.3%, close to the state's 11th-grade figure of 33.8% and slightly above the state's all-grade 30.6%. The district itself is rated 4 stars and ranks 37th of 141 Oregon districts.
Math is the clear weak spot, at 20.8% proficiency — below the state's 22.9% 11th-grade rate and far below the all-grade state figure of 32.9%. The 35.5-point gap between ELA and math is unusually wide compared with the state's 23.1-point 11th-grade gap. The school's ranking has also slipped: from 50th of 270 (81st percentile, 4 stars) in 2024–2025 to 112th of 271 (59th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026. About 79.21% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, spending is $25,773 per student, and the student-teacher ratio is 13.4, implying roughly 15 teachers. Because the school's all-grade and 11th-grade scores are identical, 11th-grade state comparisons are the fairest.
