Summary

North Medford High School is a large public high school in Medford, Oregon, serving grades 9–12 with 1,721 students as part of Medford School District 549C. It ranked 109th of 271 Oregon high schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 60th percentile with 3 stars — a decline from 4 stars and the 80th percentile in 2023–2024, and from the mid-80s percentile a few years earlier.

Academically, the picture is uneven. Science is a relative strength: 46.6% of 11th graders met proficiency standards, above district and state averages and higher than most nearby comprehensive high schools, with only Ashland High School and Rogue River Junior/Senior High's 11th grade scoring higher. English language arts is roughly average at 45.2%, close to South Medford High School and the state 11th-grade rate. Math is the clearest weakness at 18.3%, below district and state averages and behind South Medford, Ashland, and Rogue River. The graduation rate is 86.5% — above the state's 83.0% but below the district's 88.1%, and behind South Medford, Eagle Point High School, Phoenix High School, and Crater High School. Chronic absenteeism is a serious challenge at 46.6%, well above district and state rates, though similar to South Medford and Phoenix. The school spends $18,255 per student and has a student-teacher ratio of 23.9 — high compared with most nearby schools, but nearly identical to South Medford. Ashland, by contrast, serves a less disadvantaged population, spends about $5,000 more per student, and posts higher ELA and math results.

Results for different student groups vary widely. Low-income, homeless, and gifted students rank at or above the state average, while students in special education and some other student groups rank lower, and migrant students rank well below average. Several of these rankings shifted sharply from the prior year, which may reflect small group sizes. Data caveats apply: free and reduced-price lunch figures have fluctuated from 62.73% to nearly 89%, one nearby school reports an implausible rate above 100%, and some absenteeism data is missing. North generally outperforms nearby alternative and charter schools, but those serve very different populations and missions.
