Summary:

The 97470 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools (with 1 public charter school) in the Douglas County School District 4. While the district is ranked 52 out of 140 in Oregon and has a 3-star rating, some schools within the district stand out.

Roseburg High School is ranked 59 out of 270 Oregon high schools and has a 4-star rating, with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 81.8% and above-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. In contrast, Eastwood Elementary School and Phoenix School lag behind the district and state averages in various proficiency measures, suggesting a need for targeted interventions.

The area also offers unique educational options, such as the public virtual Roseburg Virtual School, which outperforms the district and state in several proficiency areas and has a low student-teacher ratio of 10:1. However, a consistent concern across all schools is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%, which requires further investigation and strategies to improve student engagement and attendance.
