Very poor due to a principal, Andy Kovach, that doesn't follow through when informed of significant issues, so nothing changes.

Excellent! The teachers and administration have gone beyond my expectations to help my family in times of desperate need.

As a parent of two Eagle Point High School students, I am deeply concerned with the frustrating experiences both my children have endured here. My youngest son is often an adamant minimalist when it comes to learning, while my daughter excels in every subject. Neither child has had their individual needs met. As their teacher states, "leave no child behind, move no child forward" appears to be the motto the district endorses. This school has forced both my kids (in spite of their vast academic differences) into the same restricting curriculum, and has now acquired a grading system that does not require homework. It is based entirely on tests and "summative assessments" and any additional work (homework) is not considered necessary, so it does not affect their grades. This encourages my son not to do his work, fail his tests, and then retake his tests as many times as is needed to pass. As for my daughter, the system does not challenge her in any way, and she is bored and disheartened by her education. This school's programs are a joke. I would not recommend sending any of your kids here for any reason, except for nonnegotiable geographical restrictions.

Wow a 4 ! The school needs to start figuring out why they are not teaching these kids properly! Very lazy teachers ..

Unfortunately all schools in Oregon are required to use the new grading system. I just moved here and hate it also. But since it is state control you can't really blame the high school. Maybe write a letter or complaint to the state education system.

I graduated from Eagle Point and if you are a top tier student that is self motivated, you will be fine. Those ok with B or C, won't find encouragment or someone to help them see why an A is important. There are some excellent teachers and some that are just there to get paid. The administration is the issue, not necessarily the teachers. Great school spirit when things are going good.
