Middle Schools in Ocean Beach School District

Summary:

The Ocean Beach School District in Washington has one middle school, Hilltop Elementary School, which serves grades 6 through 8 for the entire district, providing a small-school environment for its 188 students.

Academic performance at Hilltop Elementary is consistently below both the Ocean Beach School District and state averages across all subjects, with particularly low proficiency in mathematics and a state ranking that has fallen into the bottom 15% of Washington schools. Notably, the school spends significantly more per student than the state average, yet student outcomes remain a serious concern, especially in math where 8th-grade proficiency is very low.

For parents, this single-school analysis reveals a district facing broad academic challenges. While the higher funding and small size could be assets, the data indicates these have not yet translated into stronger academic results. The declining state ranking suggests these challenges are persistent, making it important for families to investigate the specific academic supports and improvement plans in place at Hilltop Elementary.
