The two Mark Morris High School students arrested on suspicion of rape made their first appearance in a packed Cowlitz County Juvenile Court room on Friday.
The pair have not been formally charged, according to court records and the county clerk's office.
The Daily News does not name juvenile suspects unless they are charged and tried in adult court.
One suspect was born in 2009, and the other in 2008.
Cowlitz County Superior Court Judge Patricia Fassett said the alleged crimes occurred over several months and involved three victims who were brought into a dark room.
The identities of the victims were not shared, and neither was the location of the room.
Fassett signed no-contact orders to prevent the accused from contacting the victims.
Previously Longview police said they were investigating possible crimes between Mark Morris High School students.
Fassett set bail at $15,000 for each, with adult supervision.
If they make bail, they must remain at home under parental supervision and Fassett set a curfew for 7 p.m.
Cowlitz County Youth Services declined to comment Friday on whether the two made bail.
The courtroom seats will filled that afternoon, with others standing.
An attorney for one suspect said he had been signed up for online school.
The pair's next hearing is scheduled for March 3.
The two are accused of second-degree rape, unlawful imprisonment with sexual motivation, indecent liberties with forcible compulsion and indecent exposure.
The Cowlitz County Prosecutor's Office has recused themselves from the investigation because people in the office said they know people involved in the case.
A Clark County Prosecuting Attorney's Office representative said deputy prosecutors Megan Finch and Toby Krauel would handle the Friday hearing.
Longview police arrested the students Thursday, following protests last week by Longview students and parents outside the school, demanding more information on accusations of sexual assault.
A Thursday notice from the city of Longview says the police are also investigating mandatory reporting requirements for those involved in the case.
Under state law, all school employees are mandatory reporters of child abuse, meaning they are required to inform law enforcement or another relevant agency if they have "reasonable cause to believe a child suffered abuse or neglect."
