Summary:
The Cusick School District in Washington state is home to a single high school, Cusick Junior Senior High School, which serves grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 134 students. The school's academic performance has been consistently below the state average, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science significantly lagging behind their peers across Washington.
Cusick Junior Senior High School's student population is predominantly White (38.81%), followed by Native American (26.12%), Hispanic (17.91%), and two or more races (17.16%). The school has a high percentage of students (85.82%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student body. Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $21,539, which is above the state average, and a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 11.7 to 1, the school's academic performance has been declining, with its statewide ranking dropping from 429 out of 434 high schools in 2021-2022 to 381 out of 437 high schools in 2023-2024.
While the school's dropout rate is better than the state average at 0.0%, its four-year graduation rate of 77.7% is lower than the state average, indicating that the school may need to focus on supporting students to ensure they successfully complete their high school education. Overall, the data analysis suggests that Cusick School District and its lone high school face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve academic outcomes and support the needs of its economically disadvantaged population.
