GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Ashland High School hosts many supportive teachers, but unrelenting students. The administration and focus on diversity and the arts needs improvement. School culture is overall negative and student group bullying occurs.

I appreciate that I had the opportunity to take advanced classes, as well as earn college credits in high school. I was able to get a head start by putting in a little extra effort.

Ashland is not a school for people who truly want to do well. The administration makes terrible decisions constantly, and it is not a safe place. Last year we had multiple bomb threats, many many fights, and a few shooting threats, as well as multiple drug busts. It is a terrible school.
