Hillsboro School District Weekly Hot News February 2, 2026 - Hillsboro School District On-Time Graduation Rate Crests 90 Percent

The Oregon Department of Education released 2025 graduation rates on Thursday, January 29, and Hillsboro School District students reached an impressive milestone with 90.43 percent of high school seniors graduating within four years of their first entry into high school. This marks the first time since Oregon began using the cohort graduation rate calculation method in 2008-09 that the district average has been above 90 percent. Three of the district’s five high schools had individual rates above 90 percent: Century, Glencoe, and Liberty. Hillsboro Online Academy reached its highest rate ever, and Hilhi achieved its second-highest rate. The District’s graduation rate is 7.41 percentage points higher than the state average, and 2.88 percentage points higher than last year’s rate of 87.55%. Notable gains were seen in the graduation rates of Students with Disabilities, Students Experiencing Poverty, Students from Underserved Races/Ethnicities, Ever English Learners, and students identifying as Hispanic/Latino and Black, which aligns with the District’s strategic priority to help students achieve success that is not predictable or predetermined by their race, ethnicity, or any other identities.
