Summary:

The Cusick School District operates three public schools—Bess Herian Elementary, Cusick Junior Senior High School, and the alternative K-12 school Home Pride—all sharing one campus and serving 392 students in a rural Washington community with high economic need.

Among these schools, Bess Herian Elementary stands out as the district's strongest academic performer, earning a 3-star rating and consistently improving its statewide ranking; its test scores, especially in 4th grade English, exceed the state average. Cusick Junior Senior High School has shown a remarkable turnaround, dramatically improving its ranking and star rating over three years, with notable strength in 7th grade English.

The alternative school, Home Pride, presents a unique profile, operating with far less funding per student and a very high student-teacher ratio, yet it achieves science proficiency matching the state average. While the district's graduation rate is below the state average and secondary math and science scores are areas for growth, the significant improvement at the high school and the elementary school's strong foundation are positive indicators for families.
