Summary:
Sequim School District serves approximately 2,580 students in six schools across the Sequim area, including elementary, middle, high, alternative, and virtual programs serving grades Pre-K through 12. Overall, the district ranks in the 71st percentile among Washington districts, indicating generally above-average performance. Its traditional schools include Greywolf Elementary School, Helen Haller Elementary School, Sequim Middle School, and Sequim Senior High, along with Olympic Peninsula Academy and Dungeness Virtual School.
Sequim Middle School shows the strongest recent momentum, rising from the 57th to the 70th percentile in statewide rankings over three years and improving in ELA, math, and science. Its 63.54% science proficiency rate was well above both the district and state. Helen Haller Elementary School has the district’s strongest traditional-school math results, with 58.61% proficiency, comfortably above district and state levels. However, Haller’s ranking and scores declined in the latest year. Sequim Senior High has a strong 91.4% graduation rate and improving rankings, although its 36.84% math proficiency is below district and state results. Its ELA performance remains above both comparisons despite a notable recent decline.
Olympic Peninsula Academy reported the district’s highest ELA result, at 66.22%, but its math result was much lower at 36.49%. Dungeness Virtual School had the weakest reported results, especially in math, where only 18.75% of students were proficient; its ELA, math, and science scores all declined from the prior year. Because both alternative schools are small and many grade-level results are suppressed, those figures should be interpreted cautiously rather than treated as complete measures of school quality. Greywolf Elementary School has a history of above-average rankings, but current assessment results were unavailable. Overall, the clearest district priorities are improving secondary and virtual-school mathematics, monitoring Haller’s recent decline, and maintaining the strong progress seen at the middle school.
