District-Level NCES Analysis
Seaside Sd 10 operates 4 public schools serving 1,488 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Oregon. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Clatsop County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $14,957 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 194 Oregon districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oregon compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 85.1% local, 10.8% state, and 4.1% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 45/100, ranked #95 of 160 in Oregon against a state average of 50, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 233.5:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 51.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 61.9% White, 29.7% Hispanic or Latino, 1.8% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Pacific Ridge Elementary School, with a diversity index of 57.7/100.
Its largest campus is Pacific Ridge Elementary School, enrolling 557 students (39% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is The Cannon Beach Academy, at 37 students, a 15x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Pacific Ridge Elementary School accounts for 37.4% of all Seaside Sd 10 student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Seaside Sd 10-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Seaside Sd 10 school enrollment varies 15× across entities
Seaside Sd 10 school enrollment ranges from 37 students (lowest) to 557 students (highest), a spread of 520 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Seaside Sd 10 student-counselor ratio is 234:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Seaside Sd 10 chronic absenteeism rate is 51.1% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
