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.

The best parts of my high school experience at Jefferson high school was the art classes. The worst part was the other students being hateful and the teachers not doing much to give them consequences.

The administration is terrible and nobody listens to the students. It's honestly insane seeing how some people are treated by people in charge.

I have gone to school in the Jefferson District my whole life, and over time, I have slowly seen the quality of education decline. I didn't really realize it was an issue until I began attending Willamette Career Academy. JHS doesn't have a welcoming environment, and despite being such a small town, there is no sense of community. I don't feel that the administration truly cares about me, my goals, or preparing me for my future. I would like to see better funding at JHS so that students can truly enjoy the high school experience.

I think my child and the others in her graduating class were given the highest of personal values and the best attention from the teachers and staff that I could hope for. The community of volunteers was also very supportive.
