Summary:
The Shelton School District in Washington is home to 4 high schools, serving students in grades 9-12. The schools in this district vary in their performance, with Cedar High School standing out as the highest-performing, while Choice Middle and High School and Shelton Open Doors face significant challenges in terms of student outcomes and equity.
Cedar High School is the top-performing school in the district, ranking 225 out of 437 Washington high schools and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts the highest 10th grade proficiency rates in English Language Arts (77.78%) and Math (27.78%) compared to the district and state averages, as well as a relatively low dropout rate of 11.1% in 2021-2022. In contrast, Choice Middle and High School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing schools in the state, with a 0-star rating and significantly lower graduation and proficiency rates than the district and state averages.
The data also reveals potential equity concerns, with schools serving higher percentages of low-income and minority students, such as Shelton Open Doors, which has a student population that is 96.15% Hispanic, performing significantly worse on academic measures compared to the district and state averages. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the disparities observed across the Shelton School District.
