Mossyrock Junior/Senior High School stands out with the highest 4-year graduation rate at 93.0%, significantly above the state average, and it outperforms the district and state averages in 10th grade English Language Arts proficiency. In contrast, Mossyrock Academy, the alternative high school, faces challenges with a 50.0% 4-year graduation rate and a 20.0% dropout rate, despite serving a high-need student population with 90% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Across the Mossyrock School District, there are significant socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at all schools. This may contribute to the mixed academic performance observed, with some schools and grade levels struggling to meet state proficiency standards.
