Summary

Innovation High School is a small public high school in Spokane, Washington, serving 232 students in grades 9–12 at its E. Sprague Avenue location, with a more personalized setting than the area’s large comprehensive high schools.

The school is part of Innovation Spokane Schools, which ranks in the 84th percentile among Washington districts. Innovation’s latest school ranking is in the 71st percentile, a major improvement from the 37th percentile the previous year. Academically, the school has a notably uneven profile: 71.15% of students were proficient in English Language Arts and 63.33% in science in 2025–26, both above state averages. Math remains the main concern, with 27.45% proficiency compared with 43.11% statewide. Even so, math proficiency has improved from 17.59% two years earlier. Graduation is another clear strength: the school’s 90.0% rate in 2024–25 exceeded Washington’s 82.6%, and rates have stayed above the state average in every reported year.

Compared with nearby schools, Innovation’s ELA result was close to the 73.57% reported by Lewis & Clark High School, while its science result was higher than Lewis & Clark’s 55.91%. However, Lewis & Clark and North Central High School were considerably stronger in math. Innovation outperformed the smaller The Community School in all three subjects. Its 11.7-to-1 student-teacher ratio is lower than those larger schools’ ratios, which may support a more individualized environment. Overall, Innovation appears to be improving quickly, with strong ELA, science, and graduation outcomes, while math should remain a central priority.
