Summary:

The Washington Community School District in Iowa has only one high school, Washington High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The data reveals that the school is facing several challenges, including declining academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and serving a population with significant socioeconomic needs.

Washington High School had an 88.3% four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year, but its proficiency rates on the ISASP (Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress) were generally lower than the state averages across English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science for grades 9-11 in the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years. Additionally, the school had a 21.6% chronic absenteeism rate for the 2023-2024 school year, which is quite high and can negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes.

The data also shows that 43.68% of students at Washington High School were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. This may contribute to the academic and performance challenges observed and should be considered when developing strategies to support student success. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three school years, from 266th out of 336 Iowa high schools in 2022-2023 to 309th out of 340 in 2024-2025, and it is currently rated 0 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
