Summary:
Randle, Washington is served by two public schools in the White Pass School District, a small rural district with a total of 352 students from kindergarten through 12th grade, where a majority qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
Comparing the two schools, White Pass Elementary School (grades K-6) shows a relative strength in 5th grade math, performing above the state average, while White Pass Junior Senior High School (grades 7-12) excels in graduating its students, with an 84% graduation rate that surpasses the state average. Both schools invest significantly more per student than is typical and benefit from low student-to-teacher ratios, especially at the high school level. However, overall state test scores in English and math at both schools currently fall below Washington averages, though science scores are closer to the state benchmark.
An important trend for parents to note is that both schools saw a drop in their state ratings for the 2024-2025 school year. Despite this recent decline, the high school's strong graduation rate indicates effective support for student completion. The district's high per-student spending and small class sizes, particularly in the higher grades, present a foundation of resources that the community is leveraging to support its students.
