Summary:
The 97624 zip code area is home to two schools - Chiloquin Elementary School and Chiloquin High School, both part of the Klamath County School District. These schools face significant challenges, with low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and serving a student population with high economic disadvantage.
Chiloquin High School has seen volatile performance, ranking as high as 30th out of 268 Oregon high schools in 2023-2024 but then dropping to 143rd out of 270 the following year. Both schools struggle academically, with proficiency rates well below district and state averages in English, Math, and Science. Chronic absenteeism is a major issue, with rates of 34.3% at both the elementary and high school levels.
Despite relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes, the schools are not seeing commensurate improvements in academic outcomes. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying challenges these schools face in effectively educating their student populations, which are characterized by significant socioeconomic disadvantages.
