of 396 Washington High Schools

Summary

Bainbridge High School is a public grades 9–12 school serving about 1,208 students on Bainbridge Island, Washington, in the Bainbridge Island School District. The school is ranked #1 of 396 Washington high schools for 2025–2026 and has earned five stars, while its district ranks #2 of 238 statewide. Its location offers families access to a relatively large comprehensive high school with consistently strong academic and graduation outcomes.

The school’s 97.2% graduation rate in 2024–2025 was well above the state rate of 82.6% and higher than nearby comparison schools such as Ballard High School, West Seattle High School, and North Kitsap High School. Bainbridge has also posted especially strong academic results: 2024–2025 proficiency was 93.95% in English Language Arts, 76.21% in math, and 80.45% in science. For 2025–2026, math proficiency was 78.26% and science was 79.82%, both far above statewide results. The latest all-grade ELA result is suppressed by the state, so it should not be interpreted as zero or as a decline.

For parents, Bainbridge’s main strength is balance: ELA is particularly impressive, while math and science remain strong rather than being major weaknesses. The school’s recent statewide ranking history—consistently in the top 10 since 2020–2021 and rising to #1—suggests sustained performance. It also ranks highly for several student groups, including special education and low-income students, although subgroup rankings vary. Bainbridge serves a less economically disadvantaged population than most comparisons, with 10.76% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, so test-score comparisons require context. Its same-district counterpart, Eagle Harbor High School, is much smaller and serves a different school context, making direct comparisons less meaningful.
