Trout Lake School

Summary:

Trout Lake School is a public high school serving grades 5-12 in the White Salmon Valley School District in Trout Lake, Washington, with a student population of 128 as of the 2022-2023 school year. The school has a predominantly White student body (74.22%), with significant Hispanic (15.62%) and Asian (3.91%) representation.

Trout Lake School has consistently performed well on state assessments, with high proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Science across multiple grade levels. In 2023-2024, the school's 10th grade ELA proficiency rate was 73.33%, significantly higher than the state average of 66.2%, and its 5th grade Science proficiency rate was 77.78%, compared to the state average of 56.86%. However, the school's Math proficiency rates have been lower, with the 10th grade Math proficiency rate at 23.53% in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 33.4%. Trout Lake School's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from a high of 9th out of 315 Washington high schools in 2017-2018 to a low of 249th out of 437 in 2023-2024, with its White student population ranking particularly strong at 24th out of 379 in 2022-2023.

Compared to nearby schools like Columbia High School and Glenwood Secondary, Trout Lake School has a more diverse student population and generally outperforms them in academic proficiency, particularly in ELA and Science. However, the nearby Pacific Crest Innovation Academy, a public magnet school, has significantly higher Math proficiency rates compared to Trout Lake School and the state average. Trout Lake School's fluctuating performance and ranking, as well as its wide variations in spending per student and student-teacher ratio, suggest the need for further investigation and potential improvements to ensure a more stable and high-quality educational experience for all students.

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.
