The Dalles High School (TDHS), formerly The Dalles Wahtonka High School (TDW) is a public high school located in The Dalles, Oregon, United States. It houses students from both The Dalles and the adjacent town of Mosier.

History

In 2004, North Wasco County School Districts 9 and 12 combined to form one school district in The Dalles: SD 21 (this number being chosen as it is the sum of 9 and 12). School District 21 immediately combined Wahtonka High School and The Dalles High School into "The Dalles Wahtonka Union High School". Later the "Union" was dropped, shortening the name to "The Dalles Wahtonka High School".

In 2012, the Oregon State Board of Education adopted a rule to ban the use of Native American names and imagery for use in school mascots.[6] As a result, The Dalles-Wahtonka High School changed its name to The Dalles High School, and its mascot from the Eagle-Indians to the Riverhawks, in April 2014. The 2014-2015 school year was the first year of The Dalles Riverhawks.

Campus

Main campus

The main campus has housed grades 9–12 since the 2009-2010 school year.

Wahtonka Community School

The Alternative Education campus, also known as Wahtonka Community School, houses select students from grades 9-12 as an opportunity to allow them to fulfill their education in a slower-paced environment. This campus was moved from the former Chenowith Middle School building to the former Wahtonka High School building prior to the 2009-2010 school year. For two years it was housed in the main campus but in 2014 moved back into the Wahtonka High School building, where it currently resides.

Academics

Since 2010, The Dalles High has used a "credit by proficiency" system. According to the Oregon Department of Education, "this provides students the opportunity to earn graduation credits within Oregon’s standards-based system by demonstrating what they know and can do. Students may demonstrate proficiency through classroom work or documentation of learning experiences outside of school, or through a combination of these means."

In 2008, 77% of the school's seniors received a high school diploma. Of 253 students, 194 graduated, 36 dropped out, one received a modified diploma, and 22 were still in high school the following year.[7][8]
