Tigard High School's academic performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking ranging from 58 out of 303 high schools in 2012-2013 (4 stars) to 189 out of 241 high schools in 2021-2022 (1 star). In the 2023-2024 school year, the school ranked 107 out of 268 Oregon high schools, with a 3-star rating. While the school's performance on state assessments (OSAS) varies across subjects, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts compared to Mathematics and Science, it generally outperforms the nearby Tualatin High School. However, Tigard High School lags behind highly-ranked schools like Mountainside High School and Riverdale High School.

The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with stronger results for White and Asian students, but lower performance for Hispanic and Special Education students. Additionally, Tigard High School has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, and its performance for Low Socioeconomic Status students is relatively low. These factors suggest that the school may face challenges related to socioeconomic disparities that could impact academic outcomes, highlighting the need for a comprehensive approach to address these issues and drive continuous improvement in the school's academic performance.

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.
