Summary:
Clallam Bay High & Elementary is an alternative public school serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 113 students in the small coastal town of Clallam Bay, Washington. The school is part of the Cape Flattery School District, which is ranked 180 out of 247 school districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Clallam Bay High & Elementary has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 34.51% White, 28.32% Hispanic, 7.96% Native American, and 25.66% two or more races. The school's four-year graduation rate is 80%, which is lower than the state average of 82.9%, but it has a 0% dropout rate, significantly better than the state average of 5.5%. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (36.92%) and Math (23.08%) are below the state averages, but its science proficiency rates (44.83%) are higher than the state and district averages. The school serves a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 56.9% to 72.57% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch over the past three school years.
Despite the school's diverse student population and increasing per-student spending, which has risen from $24,473 in 2019-2020 to $35,189 in 2021-2022, its academic performance lags behind the state and district averages. The school's low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.2 to 13 over the past few years, suggests that the district is investing resources in the school, but these investments do not appear to be translating into significantly higher academic achievement. The school's strengths, such as its high graduation rate and low dropout rate, indicate that it is effectively supporting its students in some areas, but there is still room for improvement, particularly in addressing the academic needs of its diverse student population and the socioeconomic challenges they face.
