While the district overall performs well, there are areas for improvement, such as the racial diversity of the student population, which is predominantly white, and the middle school performance, which lags behind the elementary and high schools. Additionally, the significant variation in spending per student, from $5,250 at Dungeness Virtual School to $20,040 at Helen Haller Elementary, suggests potential funding inequities that may impact educational outcomes. The Sequim School District has several strengths, but also opportunities for improvement to ensure equitable and high-quality education for all students.
