Abstract | Oregon students attend schools in a variety of geographic locations across the state and the sizes of the schools range from more than 3,000 students to fewer than five. This brief highlights schools in small and medium-sized towns, with a median 9th through 12th grade enrollment size of 92 for a school in a small town and 385 for a school in medium-sized town. These settings offer unique opportunities and challenges for students and staff. Examples of success from Oregon high schools include two schools located in small towns: Helix School in Helix and Adrian High School in Adrian. Two of the schools are located in medium-sized towns: Kennedy High School in Mt Angel and Lakeview High School in Lakeview. While different strategies and methods were used in each school, some common themes that emerged include: (1) Student engagement tied to school and community-wide events; (2) College-and career-ready focus; and (3) Strong relationships between students and staff.
