Francis Gary Powers Memorial High School
Powers High was built in 1978 and named after the U2 pilot Francis Gary Powers who had died the previous year in a helicopter crash. The school was so-named because of the late Mr. Powers' involvement with and support of the fledgeling Territory of Jefferson. There are, as a result, many Jefferson Territory and Pacific City landmarks named after Mr. Powers.

Rudolf Abel High School
Perryville, a suburb south of Pacific City, became home to a large influx of Russian immigrants in the 1990s and 2000s. When a new high school was constructed in 1999, the school district had a contest to name the new institution. The name chosen by the community was that of the German-born Soviet secret agent Rudolf Abel, an honored and celebrated cold-war era Soviet hero. Ironically, Abel's real name was William Fischer. Rudolf Abel was his alias and public name.
