Summary:
ZIP code 97520 in Ashland is home to a single high school, Ashland High School, which serves grades 9–12 with 877 students as part of Ashland School District 5. Because it is the only high school in the area, all local high school students attend this campus, and it is also the district's only reported 11th-grade provider — which is why its scores are the same at the all-grades and 11th-grade levels (ELA 62.7%, math 40.4%, science 48.1%).
The school stands out well above Oregon averages across every subject. All-grades ELA is 62.7% versus the state's 43.8%, math is 40.4% versus 32.9%, and science is 48.1% versus 30.6%. At 11th grade, math is especially notable at 40.4% versus the state's 22.9% — roughly 1.76 times the state rate — while ELA is 62.7% versus 46.0% and science is 48.1% versus 33.8%. Its graduation rate of 87.2% is above the state's 83.0%. In rankings, the school was 36th of 271 Oregon high schools in 2025–2026 (87th percentile, 4 stars), down slightly from 22nd of 270 (92nd percentile, 5 stars) in 2024–2025 but still better than its 41st of 268 showing in 2023–2024. The district itself ranks 4th of 141 (97th percentile, 5 stars).
The main area to watch is chronic absenteeism: 36.3% of students are chronically absent, above the district's 29.5% and the state's 33.5%. Notably, math proficiency (40.4%) sits below the district's all-grades average of 53.5%, though that district figure includes lower grades and the 11th-grade comparison is identical. About 64.2% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending is $23,333, and the student-teacher ratio is 20.2:1 — useful context for families weighing results against resources.
