Summary:
The Highland School District in Washington state is home to a single high school, Highland High School, which serves a diverse student population with a majority of Hispanic students and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged families.
While Highland High School performs better than the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, it lags behind in math and science proficiency. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 81.9% is slightly lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 10.8% is higher than the state average. Despite higher spending per student and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance suggests that additional targeted interventions and support may be needed to address these challenges.
The diversity of Highland High School's student population is an asset that the school can leverage to provide a rich learning environment. However, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch indicates that the school serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may present additional challenges in terms of providing the necessary resources and support to ensure their academic success.
