Summary:
The Selkirk School District is a small, high-performing rural district in Washington with three public schools—Selkirk Elementary School (PK-5), Selkirk Middle School (6-8), and Selkirk High School (9-12)—serving about 252 students total.
Among these schools, Selkirk High School stands out as the strongest overall performer, ranking in the top 15% of high schools statewide with exceptional scores in English and Science and the district's highest graduation rate. Selkirk Middle School excels specifically in mathematics, where its proficiency rate is well above both district and state averages. While Selkirk Elementary School shows promising improvement in its statewide ranking, its math scores are an area for growth, particularly in the upper grades.
The entire Selkirk School District consistently outperforms Washington state averages, especially in science. A key strength across all schools is their very small class sizes, with student-teacher ratios ranging from 10-to-1 at the high school to about 15-to-1 at the elementary level. This supportive environment contributes to the district's strong academic results despite serving a community with significant economic need.
