Prosser School District


Summary:

The Prosser School District in Washington serves a predominantly Hispanic student population across 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. While the district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, there are pockets of academic success that offer opportunities for improvement.

Whitstran Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Prosser Opportunity Academy, an alternative high school, struggles with a concerning 16.6% 4-year graduation rate and a high 33.3% dropout rate, indicating the need for further support and intervention.

While the district's overall test scores are below state levels, Prosser High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 91.3%, suggesting the school is able to successfully graduate a majority of its students. The district's high spending per student, ranging from $15,972 to $18,106, suggests that funding may not be the primary driver of the academic performance challenges, and further examination of resource allocation and utilization could provide insights into improving student outcomes across the Prosser School District.
