Schools in Douglas County

About schools in Douglas County

Five of Douglas County's 40 ranked public schools land in the top quartile statewide — a modest but meaningful cluster of strong performers spread across a sprawling rural landscape of 14 separate districts. Oakland High School leads the county at the 88th percentile, with Melrose Elementary in Roseburg close behind at 87th. That geographic spread matters here: families in Roseburg have different options than those in smaller communities like Glide or Myrtle Creek, and district quality varies considerably across the region. Families willing to research individual schools and districts will find genuine standouts worth the closer look.
