District-Level NCES Analysis
Woodburn Sd 103 operates 9 public schools serving 5,264 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Oregon. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 elementary, 2 middle, 1 high, 1 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Marion County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,371 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 194 Oregon districts by per-pupil spending. See how Oregon compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 17.3% local, 63.5% state, and 19.2% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 68/100, ranked #28 of 160 in Oregon against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 358.5:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 55.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 87.3% Hispanic or Latino, 10.7% White, 0.6% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Heritage Elementary, with a diversity index of 39.1/100.
Its largest campus is Woodburn High School, enrolling 1,606 students (31% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Woodburn Success, at 103 students, a 16x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Woodburn High School accounts for 30.5% of all Woodburn Sd 103 student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Woodburn Sd 103-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. 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.
Woodburn Sd 103 school enrollment varies 16× across entities
Woodburn Sd 103 school enrollment ranges from 103 students (lowest) to 1,606 students (highest), a spread of 1,503 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.
Woodburn Sd 103 has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 69.9% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is approaching the 75% concentration-grant threshold; it does not yet unlock the extra funding tier but sits meaningfully above the baseline 50% majority mark. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Woodburn Sd 103 student-counselor ratio is 359:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Woodburn Sd 103 chronic absenteeism rate is 55.6% — 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.
