Summary:
The 99576 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 high school, and 2 alternative schools. While the schools serve a community with high levels of economic disadvantage, the academic performance across the board is consistently low, with most students performing well below state averages on standardized tests.
Dillingham Middle/High School, the only traditional high school in the area, has a relatively low student-teacher ratio but struggles with very low proficiency rates, ranging from 10-34% across different subjects and grade levels. Similarly, Dillingham Elementary has slightly better test scores than the high school, but is still performing well below state averages. The two alternative schools, Koliganek School and Twin Hills School, serve smaller student populations and have higher student-teacher ratios, but lack detailed performance data to draw conclusions about the quality of education they provide.
The consistently low academic performance across all schools in the 99576 zip code area, coupled with the extremely high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility (indicating high levels of economic disadvantage), suggest that students in this community may be facing significant educational challenges. Targeted interventions and additional resources may be needed to help improve outcomes and provide a high-quality education for all students in the area, which falls under the Dillingham City School District and the Southwest Region School District.
