Intergenerational High School ranks 243 rd of 437 Washington high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Intergenerational High School is a public magnet charter high school in Bellingham, Washington, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 69. While the school stands out for its diverse student body and higher spending per student, its academic performance lags behind nearby schools and the state average.

Intergenerational High School has a more racially diverse student population compared to the surrounding schools, with 40.58% White, 7.25% African American, 14.49% Hispanic, 1.45% Asian, 2.9% Native American, and 8.7% two or more races. However, the school's test scores are significantly lower than the state average, with only 30.77% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in SBAC/English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 66.2%. Additionally, the school has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 47.83%, significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 25.28% to 44.84%.

Despite the school's higher spending per student at $50,921 in the 2021-2022 school year, compared to the nearby schools, which range from $18,970 to $24,904 per student, the academic outcomes do not reflect this investment. Intergenerational High School is ranked 243 out of 437 high schools in Washington and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other high schools in the state. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its educational strategies and implement more targeted interventions to support the unique needs of its diverse student population.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
