Tacoma School District

Summary:

The Tacoma School District is a large, diverse system of 64 schools serving about 30,000 students from preschool through high school, though its overall state ranking falls in the lower half.

Performance varies dramatically across schools, with clear standouts like Stadium High School, known for its very high graduation rate, and Science and Math Institute (SAMi), which excels in science and English. At the elementary level, Browns Point Elementary and Sherman Elementary are top performers, while Edna Travis Elementary faces significant challenges. Specialized programs, such as the Tacoma School of the Arts and Industrial Design Engineering and Arts (IDEA), consistently rank well, suggesting these models are effective.

While the district's graduation rate is strong, proficiency in core subjects like math lags behind the state average. Some schools, including Dr. Dolores Silas High School, achieve excellent graduation outcomes despite lower test scores, highlighting different measures of success. Conversely, schools like Foss High School and Tacoma Open Doors struggle with very low proficiency or high dropout rates, even with substantial per-student funding in some cases, indicating that complex factors beyond spending influence results.
