State Street High School

Summary:

State Street High School is a public high school in Sedro Woolley, Washington, serving 166 students in grades 9-12. The school faces significant challenges, including consistently low academic performance, concerning graduation and dropout rates, and a student population that predominantly comes from low-income families.

According to the key insights, State Street High School consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Washington high schools, with a 0-2 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has had extremely low 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 17% to 44.5% over the past 5 years, and correspondingly high dropout rates, ranging from 30.7% to 55.9%. This is in stark contrast to the nearby Sedro Woolley Senior High School, which outperforms State Street High School across numerous metrics. Additionally, a large majority of State Street High School's students come from low-income families, with 59.15% to 73.49% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch over the past 3 years.

The combination of these factors suggests that State Street High School may be facing significant resource and support deficiencies, which could be due to inadequate funding, lack of effective interventions and programs, or difficulties in attracting and retaining high-quality teachers. However, the school's small size and the Sedro-Woolley School District's overall ranking indicate that there may be opportunities for targeted interventions and support to help improve the school's performance. Strategies such as implementing evidence-based instructional practices, providing additional academic and social-emotional support for students, and strengthening community partnerships could potentially make a meaningful impact.

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.
