Summary:
Zip code 97465 covers Port Orford, Oregon, and contains two schools, both in Port Orford-Langlois School District 2CJ: Driftwood Elementary School (grades K–8, 174 students) and Pacific High School (grades 9–12, 61 students), for 235 students total. There is no standalone middle school and no alternative school here, because middle grades are included inside the K–8 elementary.
Pacific High School is the higher-ranked of the two, at 128th of 271 schools, 53rd percentile, 3 stars in 2025–2026. Its English language arts proficiency is 46.2%, above the district’s 34% and the state’s 43.8%, and its science is 38.5% versus the state’s 30.6%. Its student-teacher ratio is very low at 7.6, and it spends $35,965 per student. Math is its clear weak spot: 15.4% proficient against 32.9% statewide, and its graduation rate is 76.2%, below Oregon’s 83.0%. Its only school-level chronic absenteeism figure is 43.1% in 2023–2024, while the 2024–2025 value is not listed.
Driftwood Elementary School rebounded from 1 star and the 14th percentile in 2024–2025 to 2 stars and the 40th percentile in 2025–2026, though it still ranks below the state midpoint at 428th of 709. Science is a bright spot at 38.9% overall and 54.5% in 5th grade, above the state’s 30.8%; 3rd-grade math is also strong at 61.5% versus 41.3% statewide. But its ELA (32.2%) and math (23.6%) trail state averages, and 4th-grade math is just 6.3%. Chronic absenteeism is 29.0%, better than the state’s 33.5% but above the district’s 21.0%, and 76.44% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. With 174 and 61 students, year-to-year results swing widely, and Pacific’s free/reduced lunch figure of 173.77% is not interpretable as a percentage.
