Summary

Harbor Junior/Senior High School is a small public school in Aberdeen’s Grays Harbor area serving grades 7–12, with 128 students and a high-need enrollment in which 82.03% qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. The school is part of the Aberdeen School District, which ranked 210th of 238 Washington districts. Its small size allows for potentially individualized support, but it also means that results can change substantially from year to year when only a few students are added or leave.

Academic performance is generally below district and state levels, with English language arts (ELA) standing out as the clearest weakness. In 2025–26, 23.08% of students were proficient in ELA and 31.25% in science, compared with 35.49% and 36.75% in the district. Harbor’s math result was suppressed by the state, so it should be treated as unknown rather than zero. ELA performance was particularly low in 10th grade, at 23.08%, while 8th-grade science was a relative bright spot at 41.18%, above the district’s 32.72%. By comparison, nearby J M Weatherwax High School posted 54.01% ELA proficiency and 37.71% science proficiency, although its math rate was also low at 14.05%. Montesano Junior-Senior High was a much stronger regional benchmark, with 67.54% ELA and 56.62% science proficiency.

Families should also consider student persistence. Harbor’s latest reported graduation rate was 57.0% in 2023–24, compared with 77.1% for the district and 82.7% statewide; its most recent reported dropout rate was 26.6% in 2021–22, well above the state’s 10.0%. The school ranked 391st of 396 Washington schools in 2025–26, approximately the 1st percentile. These figures point to priorities in ELA, upper-grade science, math support, attendance, credit recovery, and early graduation planning. Harbor’s $21,789 per-student spending and 16.6-to-1 student-teacher ratio reflect the costs of operating a very small school and serving students with substantial needs, not necessarily greater unrestricted instructional resources.
