Summary

Hudtloff Middle School is a public school in Lakewood, WA, serving about 555 students in grades 6 through 8 as part of the Clover Park School District.

Academic performance at Hudtloff is significantly below state and district averages, with recent data showing only about 22% of students proficient in English, 12% in math, and 23% in science. The school's statewide ranking has fallen sharply over the past decade, placing it in the bottom 3% of all Washington middle schools. While the school has a lower student-to-teacher ratio and spends more per student than many nearby schools, these resources have not translated into stronger academic outcomes. A high percentage of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which presents challenges, but other schools in the area with similar student populations, like Thomas Middle School, perform notably better.

Comparisons with nearby schools highlight stark differences. Within the same district, Thomas Middle School has proficiency rates nearly double those of Hudtloff in key subjects. The contrast is even greater with schools in neighboring districts, such as Drum Intermediate and Narrows View Intermediate in the highly-ranked University Place School District, where proficiency rates are above 70%. This suggests that district-level factors and community resources play a major role in student achievement.

They didn't follow my child's IEP and broke the law by suspending him while having a IEP. The staff bullied him and he has autism and ADHD . They verbally abused my child and treated him like a criminal but really they didn't follow protocol. Close Quote
