This morning, we proudly marched in the Southern Oregon Pride Parade — standing tall with our students, staff, families, and community to celebrate love, diversity, and acceptance. At ASD, we believe every student deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported — exactly as they are. Today was a joyful reminder of the power of unity, visibility, and the vibrant spirit of Southern Oregon. 💖 Thank you to everyone who showed up, cheered loud, and walked proud! #SOPride #AshlandPride #AllAreWelcome #AshlandSchoolDistrict #Pride2025

Ashland High School seniors Azaleah and Owen were honored this week by Superintendent Dr. Joseph Hattrick, who presented them with special black graduation honor cords in recognition of their service as student representatives to the Ashland School Board. These cords mark their leadership and commitment to amplifying student voices throughout the year. Azaleah and Owen's advocacy and dedication have made a lasting impact on both the board and their peers—congratulations to both on this meaningful distinction.
