Summary:
This analysis focuses on a single high school, Rooted School Washington, a very small public school in the Rooted School Washington district serving 58 students in grades 9 through 12.
Rooted School Washington operates with significant resources, featuring a very low student-teacher ratio of 9.6:1 and a remarkably high per-student spending of $70,764, which allows for a highly personalized educational environment. The school serves a population where a majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating it supports a community with economic need.
Despite this substantial investment and small class sizes, the school's academic performance, particularly in mathematics where proficiency is 15.38%, lags behind Washington state averages. The school has a 1-star rating and ranks in the lower quarter of state high schools. This presents a notable contrast between resource levels and current standardized test outcomes, suggesting that parents may wish to investigate the school's specific educational model, mission, and the non-academic supports it provides to students.
