Summary:
The Camas School District is a top-ranked Washington system with 13 schools serving about 7,600 students from kindergarten through 12th grade, featuring six elementary schools, three middle schools, three high schools, and one alternative K-12 program.
Across the district, academic performance is consistently strong, with every traditional school exceeding state averages in English, math, and science. Standout elementary schools include Grass Valley Elementary, which leads in proficiency, while Odyssey Middle School and Skyridge Middle School are top-tier. The high school landscape offers distinct options: Camas High School is a large, comprehensive leader with a 94.4% graduation rate, Discovery High School is a small, highly selective school ranked 13th in the state, and Hayes Freedom High School has shown remarkable recent improvement.
While the district excels overall, math is a relative focus area, and performance varies. Liberty Middle School, while solid, ranks below its peer middle schools. The alternative Camas Connect Academy faces significant challenges, with the district's lowest graduation and highest dropout rates, highlighting the different needs of its student population. The district's efficient use of resources supports these diverse programs, maintaining a strong educational foundation for all families.
