Summary:

Hidden Valley High School is a public high school located in Grants Pass, Oregon, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 537 students. The school is part of the Three Rivers/Josephine County School District, which is ranked 59 out of 140 districts in Oregon and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hidden Valley High School has shown a mixed academic performance, with its statewide ranking ranging from 104 out of 268 high schools in 2023-2024 to as low as 235 out of 258 in 2022-2023. While the school's 11th-grade proficiency rates in 2023-2024 outperformed the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, the following year saw a significant drop in these metrics. The school's performance has also varied across different student subgroups, with relatively stronger results for female and male students, but lower rankings for Hispanic, White, and low socioeconomic status students.

Compared to nearby schools, Illinois Valley High School and North Valley High School, both in the same district, have outperformed Hidden Valley High School in academic metrics. Additionally, Rogue River Junior/Senior High, in the neighboring Rogue River School District, has consistently performed better than Hidden Valley High School. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (41.9% in 2022-2023) suggests that socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the academic challenges faced by the school.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
