Summary:
Quillayute Valley School District has two listed high-school programs serving grades 9–12 in the Forks area of western Washington: Forks High School and the much smaller Insight School of WA Open Doors Program. Together, they enroll 272 students, with Forks serving 264 and Insight serving 8. Because Insight has very limited publicly reported information, most of the available picture of high-school education in the area comes from Forks.
Forks High School has a mixed but generally improving profile. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate was 84.5%, higher than both the district’s 75.0% and the state’s 82.6%. Its dropout rate was 9.8%, below the district rate and equal to the state rate. English language arts is the school’s strongest academic area: 59.38% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, exceeding the district and state results. ELA proficiency also improved by 8.4 percentage points from the prior year. The school reported a 12.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio and $22,833 in spending per student.
The main concerns at Forks High School are math and especially science. Math proficiency was 26.87%, close to the district result but well below the state’s 43.11%. Science proficiency was only 17.07%, far below both the district and state, and declined nearly 19 points in one year. The school’s ranking trend has nevertheless improved, moving from the 5th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 30th percentile in 2025–2026. Insight School is not directly comparable because of its eight-student enrollment and missing graduation, assessment, staffing, and lunch-program data. Parents comparing local options should view Forks as the comprehensive high-school choice with more measurable outcomes, while treating Insight as a specialized program requiring more direct information about its services and expectations.
