Arts and Technology High School (ATHS), located in Wilsonville, Oregon, is a specialized public charter high school within the West Linn-Wilsonville School District. Designed as a small-learning-community alternative, the school focuses on project-based learning and integrated technology to provide students with a personalized educational experience. The curriculum is crafted to be highly engaging, emphasizing real-world applications and interdisciplinary study, which allows students to earn their diplomas in a setting that differs significantly from the traditional comprehensive high school model.

By fostering a collaborative environment, ATHS encourages students to take ownership of their learning through portfolios and creative projects that bridge the gap between academic subjects and modern technical skills. It serves as an ideal environment for students who thrive in smaller settings and are looking for a unique, hands-on approach to preparing for college, career paths, and lifelong learning in a digital-first world.
