Summary

Forest Grove High School is a public high school in Forest Grove, Oregon, serving 1,898 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Forest Grove School District 15, which is ranked 91 out of 140 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Forest Grove High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 113th out of 270 high schools in 2024-2025 to 166th out of 241 in 2021-2022. Its SchoolDigger rating has also varied, from 1 to 3 stars out of 5. The school performs relatively well for certain student subgroups, such as White and Multi-racial students, but struggles with the performance of English Language Learners, ranking 17th out of 17 high schools in 2024-2025 with a 0-star rating. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state and district averages.

While Beaverton Academy of Science and Engineering, a high-performing school in the Beaverton School District 48J, consistently ranks among the top 10 high schools in Oregon, Forest Grove High School's performance is generally lower than that of nearby high schools in the Beaverton and Hillsboro School District 1J. Additionally, the school has relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 33.8% to 38.1% in recent years, which is a significant concern and may be contributing to the school's overall academic performance challenges.
