Good afternoon-

AHS Final Exams are scheduled from Wednesday, June 15- Wednesday, June 22. The schedule will be shared shortly. Teachers will be discussing exam expectations in the coming weeks with students.


Ashland High School is participating in the JED High School technical assistance program which helps schools assess and strengthen policies, programs, and systems that prevent suicide and support the emotional well-being of our students. The JED Foundation is a national nonprofit that seeks to support the emotional well-being of young adults ages 13-30. As part of assessing what we currently have in place, our JED High School Advisor will be facilitating virtual focus groups with students, caregivers, and educators to learn more about the emotional health of the school. No school or district staff will be part of the caregiver or student focus groups and identifiers will be kept confidential so your identity will be protected.

The caregiver focus group will take place on Tuesday, May 17 from 6-7pm via zoom. We are looking for 10-12 participants. If you are available and interested please complete this form by Tuesday, May 10. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.

Thank you,
