Hockinson High School

Summary:

Hockinson High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Brush Prairie, Washington, with a student population of 664. The school is part of the Battle Ground School District, which is ranked 23 out of 247 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hockinson High School consistently outperforms the state average in academic metrics, with 78.13% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 49.04% proficient or better in Math, compared to the state averages of 66.2% and 33.4%, respectively. The school also maintains very high graduation rates, ranging from 93.7% to 98.0% over the past 5 years, significantly outperforming the state average. However, the school's student population is less diverse, with a higher percentage of White students (80.57%) and a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (21.84%) compared to nearby schools, such as Vancouver iTech Preparatory, which also demonstrates strong academic performance.

Hockinson High School's success can be attributed to a combination of factors, including its high spending per student, ranging from $9,510 to $13,765 over the past 4 years, and the relatively higher socioeconomic status of its student population. While the school's academic outcomes are impressive, it may benefit from exploring ways to promote greater racial diversity and inclusion within its student body, as some nearby schools, such as Vancouver iTech Preparatory, have a more diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
