Eugene Ashley High

My son started here after moving and it’s been an uphill battle with the faculty from the teachers to the principal. On several occasions I have emailed the teachers and principals concerning projects and just general clarification on assignments, my emails were NEVER returned even after a phone call to the principal. My son has also emailed his teachers for work he was missing on days he was out sick and such. Again, no response. The principals take on this was that they may have not had the time to respond which I would understand if it had been only a few days but we are talking weeks without a response.

Faculty is genuinely interested in student success. There are great extracurricular activities and a great community of involved parents. I was a little fearful of my kids attending such a big school, but it fits NOT feel so big. Staff takes time to get to know the students. Also, the building is great and the campus offers as much as some small colleges.

I am a former student at this school. The administration changed at least three times in two years, the school spent their funds on flat screen televisions that nobody payed attention to, and there was a controversial incident my last year where the school security ended up arresting an innocent kid (the case was later dropped, and the student was cleared of all charges). The administration has absolutely no idea what they're doing. If you can help it, DO NOT send your child here. The only saving graces are the arts programs. The chorus, band, orchestra, and drama departments are top-natch for a public school. Other than that, it's worth avoiding.

best high school ever. B.O.B, Drake, Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, and Jay Z came and sung at our chorus concert. RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
