Principal's Message

At Ashland High School, our mission is clear: to ensure high levels of achievement for ALL students. We believe every student has the ability to succeed when provided with the right tools, opportunities, and support. That’s why our commitment is rooted in using research-based, rigorous, and diverse instructional strategies that meet the needs of every learner.

We know that learning is most powerful when students are engaged and motivated. For this reason, we place a strong emphasis on maximizing student engagement through incentive-based learning. By fostering a culture of encouragement, recognition, and support, we inspire our students to take ownership of their education and strive for excellence in everything they do.

Our school community—teachers, staff, parents, and partners—works together to create an environment where students are not only challenged academically but also supported socially and emotionally. When students feel safe, valued, and motivated, their potential has no limits.

At Ashland High, we don’t just prepare students for graduation—we prepare them for the future. Together, we will continue to build a school where achievement is not just expected but celebrated, and where every student has the opportunity to thrive.

With pride and purpose,
Steven Griffin
Principal
