Darrington School District


Summary:

The Darrington School District in Washington state consists of two schools: Darrington Elementary School and Darrington High School. The data reveals significant performance gaps, with the elementary school lagging behind state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science proficiency, while the high school outperforms the elementary school and exceeds the state average in 10th-grade ELA proficiency.

Darrington Elementary School faces challenges, with consistently low rankings among Washington elementary schools and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population. In contrast, Darrington High School has a relatively strong graduation rate, though its dropout rate is higher than the state average. The district's resource allocation also appears uneven, with the high school spending significantly more per student than the elementary school.

Overall, the Darrington School District faces significant performance and resource challenges, particularly at the elementary school level. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach to improve educational outcomes and support the diverse needs of the student population. The district serves a predominantly white student body, with notable percentages of Hispanic and Native American students, and the high free/reduced lunch rates suggest the district serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged community, which may contribute to the academic challenges.
