Educators at Parkrose High School constantly analyze data. Oregon’s Education Department holds a number of assessments, called the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills. The math exam is more difficult than the science test because students must do more writing. The science test is multiple choices. Schools within the Beaverton district may not appear on the list.
Oregon has some of the best math and science scores because of their curriculum.
School rankings are based on combined scores that shift to higher education.
Oregon City High School was accidentally left off the original list. Due to an input error, Clackamas High School received a higher ranking than it should have gotten. A ranking is based on the combined scores only among schools exceeding the 50 percent science and 45 percent math thresholds. The math figures tell which students are equipped to further their education and go to college.
We then took the schools that exceeded the 50 percent level (in terms of meeting state standards) in science and 45 percent on the more rigorous math test (on which schools averaged only about 33 percent in terms of meeting the standards) and included them in the attached slideshow.

Key takeaways
- Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills is the latest assessment of science and math.
- The ranking of schools is dependent on combined scores.
- The math assessment is good indicator of which students are ready to continue their education.

Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
