Summary:
The Oak Harbor School District in Washington state is home to two solid-performing middle schools: Oak Harbor Intermediate School and North Whidbey Middle School. Both schools serve a diverse student population, with a mix of racial backgrounds and a significant percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, the two schools perform well above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Science proficiency, with Oak Harbor Intermediate School having slightly higher ELA and Science scores compared to North Whidbey Middle School. In Math, both schools perform slightly below the state average, but still have a significant percentage of students proficient or better. The higher student-teacher ratio at North Whidbey Middle School may contribute to its slightly lower test scores compared to Oak Harbor Intermediate School.
While both schools are solid performers, Oak Harbor Intermediate School has a higher statewide ranking, reaching as high as 81st out of 445 Washington middle schools in the 2014-2015 school year. North Whidbey Middle School's statewide ranking has fluctuated more, suggesting the school may be facing some challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance, which could be an area for further investigation and improvement.
