Summary

Ashland High School is a public high school serving grades 9–12 in Ashland, Oregon — a college town in the Rogue Valley — with 877 students, and it stands out as the academic leader of its region, ranking 36th out of 271 Oregon high schools (87th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026. It is the high school of Ashland School District 5, which ranks 4th out of 141 Oregon districts. After a pandemic-era dip to 100th in 2021–2022, the school rebounded to 22nd in 2024–2025 before settling at its current 36th place — still well above state averages and far ahead of nearby high schools.

On the 2025–2026 11th-grade OSAS exams, Ashland scored 62.7 in English language arts, 40.4 in math, and 48.1 in science, leading every nearby high school in all three subjects. Ashland's math results are its biggest edge: 40.4% proficient versus the state's 22.9%, with no nearby school above 25% and Crater High School at just 15.1%. In ELA, Ashland is 16.7 points above the state and about 8 points ahead of the next closest nearby school; in science it leads by 14.3 points over the state, though North Medford High School is close at 46.6%. Ashland's rank sits 71 positions ahead of the next nearest school, South Medford High School.

Graduation is solid but not the differentiator: Ashland's 87.2% rate beats the state's 83.0%, but Phoenix High School (93.1%) and South Medford (90.4%) are higher, and Ashland's own rate has slipped from 91.2% in 2020–2021. Chronic absenteeism is the clearest warning sign — 36.3%, above both the district (29.5%) and state (33.5%) and up sharply from 13.6% in 2020–2021, though still lower than every nearby high school with reported data. One bright spot is the school's effectiveness with low-income students, where it ranked in the 95th–96th percentile in the two most recent years. Ashland also spends $23,333 per student, among the highest in the area.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, December 9, 2022

I wish zero was an option. We originally sent all three of our children to Ashland High School. Our son graduated in 2020 and his experience was okay. In fact back when he was a freshman or sophomore I felt proud to say he attended AHS. My husband and I have been big supporters of Ashland Schools for many years by volunteering and financial donations to both educational and sports programs.
I can honestly say this high school is currently a horrible environment. We transferred both of our daughters from AHS to different schools last year. Luckily, they are thriving in their new schools. I won’t go into detail about the school but will say that the students are in charge and the focus is not on education. If you prefer your student focuses on gender, pronouns, bullying, and in general creating chaos in the classroom it may be a good fit. Keep in mind parents will not get support from AHS staff if your child doesn’t agree to it. Again, children are in charge.
Sad to see this school become such a disappointment. Maybe someday it will return to some version of what it use to be. Luckily, I no longer have to worry about it. This message is meant for prospective families to read and consider before deciding Ashland High School is the right place for their kids. Close Quote
