Summary:
The Granite Falls School District in Washington state has only one middle school, Granite Falls Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science.
Granite Falls Middle School has a student population of 489, with a racial makeup that is predominantly White (73.42%) and a relatively high free/reduced lunch rate of 46.83%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. The school's overall academic performance, as measured by its SchoolDigger ranking, has been in the bottom 25% of Washington middle schools for the past three school years.
Despite the district's relatively high per-student spending of $15,051, the school's academic challenges persist, raising questions about the effective allocation of resources and the need for targeted strategies to improve student outcomes. The lack of diversity in the student population may also impact the school's ability to provide a well-rounded educational experience for its students.
