Olympia School District

The Olympia School District in Washington state is home to 19 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

Olympia High School and Capital High School are the district's top-performing high schools, with 5-star and 4-star ratings, respectively, and impressive proficiency rates in core subjects. At the middle school level, Washington Middle School and Jefferson Middle School stand out as high-achieving institutions. Among the elementary schools, Centennial Elementary and Pioneer Elementary consistently rank in the top 20% of Washington elementary schools.

While the district as a whole performs well above the state average, there is a noticeable gap in academic performance between the highest-performing and lowest-performing schools, particularly at the elementary level. This suggests potential opportunities for improvement and resource allocation. Additionally, the district's alternative school, Olympia Regional Learning Academy, faces unique challenges, with lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates compared to the traditional high schools.
