Summary:

The Longview School District is a 2-star rated district of 17 schools in Washington, serving about 5,700 students from preschool through high school, including traditional, virtual, and alternative programs.

Performance varies significantly across schools. For elementary students, Columbia Valley Garden Elementary School stands out as the top performer in English, math, and especially science, while Saint Helens Elementary ranks in the bottom 4th percentile statewide. In middle school, Mt. Solo Middle School is consistently strong, but a steep drop in math proficiency from elementary to middle grades is a district-wide concern. The traditional high schools, R A Long High School and Mark Morris High School, boast graduation rates over 92%, far exceeding the state average, though their math proficiency rates are notably low.

Specialized programs show extreme contrasts: the Longview Virtual Academy has very low test scores, while Discovery High School-Achieve, an alternative program, has a very high dropout rate despite high per-student spending. The district trails state averages in core academic subjects, indicating a need for targeted academic support, particularly in mathematics, to match its success in keeping students in school through graduation.
