Crater High School is a public high school in Central Point, Oregon, United States.
Beginning in the 2007-2008 school year, a program called the Small School Initiative was established in Crater after a monetary grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Meyer Memorial Trust. It divided the Crater Campus into four smaller, autonomous schools, each with its own principal and staff members. These schools were the Crater Academy of Natural Sciences (CANS), Crater Renaissance Academy (CRA), Crater School of Business, Innovation & Science (BIS), and Crater Academy of Health and Public Services (CAHPS). CANS was closed and now there are only 3 schools on the Crater Campus.
In 1983, Crater High School was honored in the Blue Ribbon Schools Program, the highest honor a school can receive in the United States. Crater Students normally come from Hanby Middle School and Scenic Middle School.
The cross country team has won four consecutive boys 5A state titles. The girls softball team has won three consecutive 5A state titles.
