I’d like to congratulate Waldport High School on receiving the 2018 US News & World Report Best High Schools Bronze ranking for the fourth consecutive year! Only 30% of the high schools in our country are ranked as a high performing school. The success of Waldport High School is directly related to teachers and staff who love and support their students and push them to grow. We also achieved this honor because our kids worked their tails off!
