Oregon Department of Education graduation rates for the 2022-23 school year show that for the fourth consecutive year, the four-year graduation rate of Hood River Valley High School students was more than 90 percent.  Last spring, 90.5 percent of HRVHS students graduated on time compared to 81.3 percent of all Oregon students.  It continued a ten-year trend of increasing graduation rates for the school.  Hood River County School District interim superintendent Bill Newton says it speaks to the hard work done by teachers, staff, and families in the district, but they are also always looking to increase the number by paying close attention to ninth grade success and provide interventions when necessary.  Newton adds they also have earlier points in elementary and middle school where they do the same thing to provide assistance to students who are struggling.
