Oregon’s High School Graduation Rate Hits 83%, a New High. Look up Your School or District

Oregon’s graduation rate rose by 1 percentage point to 83%, with 19 student groups reaching record highs amid ongoing efforts to close achievement gaps, officials said.

  • On Thursday, the Oregon Department of Education reported the Class of 2025 reached an all-time four-year graduation rate of 83.0%, surpassing the prior 82.6% record.
  • Back in 2013, Gov. John Kitzhaber set a goal from a 69% baseline toward higher completion, and the Oregon Department of Education cites early literacy, high school success programs, and SB 141 as key drivers.
  • Among tracked student groups, those completing two Career and Technical Education credits graduated at 97.8%, while American Indian and Alaska Native students graduated at 74.0%.
  • Districts across Oregon set record four-year graduation rates in 2025, with thirty-three districts breaking highs and Crook County High School reaching 98.4%.
  • Despite the gains, Oregon remains below recent national averages near 87%, facing policy questions as the Essential Skills graduation requirement suspension ends in 2027-28 while the ODE accountability system evolves.
