Summary:

Zip code 97470 in Douglas County, Oregon, has 11 schools — 7 elementary, 2 middle, and 2 high — serving about 4,871 students in a high-poverty area, where the 10 schools reporting free/reduced-lunch data average roughly 83%. Nine schools, with 4,729 students, belong to Douglas County School District 4, ranked 49th of 141 Oregon districts with 3 stars. Lookingglass Elementary School is the only school in Winston-Dillard School District 116, which ranks 129th of 141 with 0 stars. Horizons - Foster Educational Program belongs to Douglas Education Service District and, with 11 students, no rank or test data, and a 2.7 student-teacher ratio, is a specialized program not comparable to the others.

Melrose Elementary School is the standout: the only 5-star school, ranked 92nd percentile among Oregon elementaries, with 64.7% ELA, 66.0% math, and 56.5% science — far above district and state — plus the lowest chronic absenteeism in the zip at 22.5%, even though 87.75% of its students are economically disadvantaged. Hucrest Elementary School (81st percentile, 4 stars) also beats district and state in all three subjects, led by math. Roseburg High School ranks 71st percentile with 4 stars, a graduation rate of 85.5% above the state's 83.0%, and grade-11 ELA of 59.7% versus the state's 46.0%; its grade-11 math (26.4% vs 22.9%) is above the state but by a much narrower margin. Joseph Lane Middle School stands out in science at 42.5%, well above the state.

Elementary results diverge sharply: Melrose's all-grade math is 66.0%, while Fullerton IV Elementary School is 21.8% and Lookingglass is 14.3%. Lookingglass ranks 11th percentile with 1 star, with science under 5%, though its chronic absenteeism is relatively low at 25.8%. Eastwood Elementary School (28th percentile, 1 star) is uneven — strong 4th-grade ELA but 5th-grade math at 13.1%. Chronic absenteeism is highest at the secondary schools: John C Fremont Middle School at 38.1% and Joseph Lane at 37.5%, both above the state's 33.5%. Spending does not track results: Fir Grove Elementary School has the highest per-student spending ($21,490) and lowest student-teacher ratio (13.0) yet sits at the 48th percentile with 2 stars.
