Naches Valley School District

The Naches Valley School District in Washington state is home to three schools: Naches Valley Elementary School, Naches Valley High School, and Naches Valley Middle School. The district serves a diverse student population, with a majority of white students and a significant Hispanic representation.

Naches Valley High School stands out as the top-performing school in the district, ranking 186 out of 437 Washington high schools and boasting a strong 91.7% four-year graduation rate. The school also excels in SBAC English Language Arts tests, with 68.63% of 10th graders proficient or better, outpacing the district and state averages. Naches Valley Elementary School also performs well, surpassing the district and state averages in 4th grade SBAC English Language Arts and Math.

However, the Naches Valley Middle School consistently underperforms, ranking lower than the other two schools and falling below the district and state averages in both SBAC English Language Arts and Math. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support at the middle school level. Additionally, the high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients across all three schools indicate a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to equity concerns that require further investigation and action.
