Summary:

The Lopez Island, Washington school system consists of two small, rural public schools—Lopez Elementary School (grades K-6) and Lopez Middle High School (grades 7-12)—within the Lopez School District, serving a total of 202 students on a shared campus.

Comparing the two schools, Lopez Middle High School is the stronger and more consistent performer, ranking in the 85th percentile statewide with an 88% graduation rate and notably high science proficiency. Lopez Elementary School shows more variability in its rankings and has a significant challenge with math proficiency, though it performs near or above state averages in English and science. Both schools benefit from very small class sizes and high per-student spending.

For parents, the Lopez School District is a high-investment, close-knit community where the secondary school excels, particularly in science. The main area for improvement is elementary-level mathematics, while the district's overall 4-star rating indicates a quality educational environment. The small size leads to some year-to-year fluctuations in elementary rankings but allows for considerable individual attention.
