Best Public Schools in Blaine, WA


Summary:

The Blaine School District in Washington operates five public schools serving about 1,964 students from Pre-K through 12th grade in a community where nearly 45% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Blaine High School is the clear standout, ranking in the top quarter of state high schools with exceptionally strong graduation rates and science scores that far exceed state averages. In contrast, the elementary and middle schools, including Blaine Elementary School and Blaine Middle School, generally perform below state averages in core subjects like math and English, with the middle school showing a notable decline in its statewide ranking in recent years.

There are significant differences in resources across the district; Blaine Primary School has the highest per-student spending and smallest class sizes, while the small, alternative Blaine Home Connection program operates with the lowest funding and a very high student-teacher ratio. The overall picture is of a district with a high-achieving high school that successfully prepares students for graduation, but with academic performance in earlier grades that lags behind state standards.
