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.

Good school for the area. Great ELL Special Education program, and most (not all) teachers are kind and willing to take extra time out of their day to help you.

I loved how united everyone was. It didn't matter if you were a freshman or a senior, you were made to feel like you belong and are important. Attending Medford High felt like I was part of a huge family. Although having only attended my senior year there, I can definitely say that it was the best school year ever. I am grateful for the people I've met and the relationships I made there. It is truly an unforgettable time in my life.

Medford High was very good at challenging their students academically. When something became "too easy," the teachers would continue to engage students in new subjects and even go out of their way to find more difficult material. The only thing I would change is Medford's lack of attention to the arts.

Staff that are more concerned with a paycheck than actually teaching students. Admin that blindly follows policy for students yet break policy in holding teachers accountable for violations of student rights or poor performance. When a student does well its, "because of the school", but if a student...

Serve rock hard expired food on the daily, teachers rarely help and instead get mad if you ask, they walk around acting they’re god and then wonder why students don’t behave well.
