Sunset High School

What Sunset High School does

Sunset High School is a public comprehensive high school located in the Cedar Mill area of Portland, Oregon (13840 NW Cornell Rd), operating as one of six comprehensive high schools within the Beaverton School District. The school opened in 1959 and serves students in grades 9-12 primarily through the district's attendance-zone enrollment process, with a current enrollment of approximately 1,782 students for the 2025-26 school year and an alumni base of more than 22,000 graduates. Beyond enrolled students, the school interfaces with parents and families (engaged through ParentSquare and an active PTO), community members, and a small set of named corporate partners.

The academic portfolio is structured around three frameworks: the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program (the school is an authorized IB World School), the AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) college-readiness program with an elective class offered in grades 9-12, and a standard diploma track supplemented by an Honors Diploma option introduced in 2013-14. Outcome metrics disclose that over 55% of 11th and 12th grade students enroll in at least one IB course and over 80% of graduates enroll in college or university. Student-facing technology is limited to standard district-licensed systems: Canvas for online coursework, ParentVue and StudentVue for grade and attendance tracking, Finalsite for website content management, and ParentSquare for family communication. Co-curricular offerings include 47+ student clubs, an Athletics program competing in the Metro League at the 6A classification (with 44 state championships over the past 50 years), performing arts (Band, Choir, Theatre), and a CTE Behavioral Health career pathway.

Sunset High School does not generate commercial revenue. Operations are funded through the Beaverton School District via state appropriations, local property taxes, and federal grants, with some optional fee-based activities. Outreach to prospective families is conducted through the school website, district-managed ParentSquare communications, 8th Grade Tours, Curriculum Night, Apollo Preview Days, and social media. Named corporate and community partnerships with Columbia Sportswear, Intel, Nike, and Pacific Office Automation provide supplemental workforce and post-secondary exposure opportunities.
