School
North Medford High School is a four-year public high school of approximately 1700 students, 72 teaching faculty, 4 building administrators, and 4 counselors. In 2011, 80% of the graduating class was accepted to a community college or university. 
Community
Medford is a city with a population just over 76,000.  There are three public and two private four year high schools in the community, serving approximately 4,000 students grades 9-12. While primary industries are agriculture, and retailing, the city serves as a home base for a variety of professionals, as Medford is the largest city within the 500 miles between Eugene, Oregon and San Francisco. As a result, Medford is the center for a large number of regional medical and legal services.

In 2010-11, students at North Medford High School had mean SAT Critical Reading scores of 510, Mathematics scores of 507, and Writing scores of 482, with approximately 58% of the senior class taking the test. 


Grading Periods
Grades are distributed four times per year, with each quarter grading period used to establish awarding of credit and class rank. Class blocks are 68 minutes in length, with each class meeting twice every three days.


Graduation Requirements
The graduation requirements for Oregon schools are currently in a process of change.  For more information on graduation requirements specific to each class of students, please visit the Oregon Diploma website!
