Academics

In 2008, 53% of the school's seniors received a high school diploma. Of 15 students, eight graduated, two dropped out, one received a modified diploma, and four were still in high school the following year. [3] [4]

The Oregon modified high school diploma, also known as the OAR 581-022-1134 Modified Diploma, is a document that is given to students who have "a documented history of the inability to maintain grade level achievement due to significant learning and instructional barriers...or a documented history of a medical condition that creates a barrier to achievement." It was given following a 2007 Oregon law, and after some misuse was termed "diploma lite" by The Oregonian.
