High Schools in Dillingham City School District

The Dillingham City School District in Alaska is home to a single high school, Dillingham Middle/High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. Despite having a diverse student population and relatively high per-student spending, the school has consistently performed below the state average in academic proficiency across multiple subject areas.

Dillingham Middle/High School has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and has ranked in the bottom half of Alaska high schools in recent years. The school's proficiency rates in ASA/Science, STAR/English Language Arts, and STAR/Mathematics are significantly lower than the state averages, with only 12.21% of students proficient in ELA and 11.45% proficient in Math across all grades. This low academic performance is concerning, especially given the school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the school's challenges, it does have some positive attributes, including a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 10.2 to 1 and a high per-student spending of $23,457. These resources suggest that there may be opportunities for the school to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the underlying issues and improve academic outcomes for its diverse student body. With the right support and a focus on effective resource allocation, Dillingham Middle/High School has the potential to better serve the educational needs of the Dillingham community.
