The schools in the Ashland School District 5 generally outperform the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with high graduation rates and relatively low student-teacher ratios. However, the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3% is an area of concern. The schools also have varying free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 30.32% at Ashland High School to 43.85% at Bellview Elementary School, but the high-performing schools are effectively serving their economically disadvantaged populations.
