Despite the challenges, small high schools are improving student performance on OAKS achievement tests. They also are experiencing dramatic declines in the dropout rate and impressive gains in the graduation rate. Moreover, economically disadvantaged students at Initiative schools now outperform similar students across the state.

In November 2009 our Report on Promising Outcomes was published.  This report provides a summary of achievement and graduation data for the Oregon Small Schools Initiative, along with brief case studies.  In addition it contains an overview of the Initiative history and structures.  Click here to view report.

The following charts and tables provide quantitative perspective on the gains Initiative schools and their students are making as compared to other schools and students in Oregon.
