Summary:
The St. John School District in Washington contains a single, very small rural high school, St John/Endicott High, serving about 60 students in grades 9-12 with a notably high per-student spending level.
This school offers a unique environment with very small class sizes, which appears to support strong academic performance in specific areas; its students consistently outperform state averages in English Language Arts and Science proficiency. However, parents should note a significant disconnect between these solid test scores and student outcomes, as historical data shows a graduation rate below and a dropout rate more than double the recent state averages, indicating challenges in keeping students enrolled through to graduation.
Overall, St John/Endicott High provides a close-knit educational setting that achieves good academic results for its engaged students but faces persistent hurdles with student retention, a complex situation given the substantial resources dedicated to each pupil in the district.
