Summary:
The Pasco School District in Washington state is home to three high schools: Chiawana Senior High School, Pasco Senior High School, and New Horizons High School. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and provide a range of educational opportunities within the Pasco School District.
Among the three high schools, Chiawana Senior High School stands out as the largest and highest-performing, with the highest four-year graduation rate of 84.8% and the lowest dropout rate of 6.7%. In contrast, New Horizons High School is the smallest and lowest-performing, with a four-year graduation rate of only 30.1% and a dropout rate of 22.1%. Additionally, Chiawana Senior High School has a more diverse student population, with a higher percentage of White and Hispanic students compared to the other two schools.
Academically, Chiawana Senior High School outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Math, and Science proficiency, while Pasco Senior High School and New Horizons High School struggle academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates. The high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across all three schools suggest that the district serves predominantly low-income communities, which may contribute to the disparities in academic performance and student outcomes.
