Summary

College Place High School is a public grades 9–12 school in College Place, Washington, serving 486 students in the College Place School District in the Walla Walla area.

The school’s overall standing has improved significantly: it rose from the 27th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 46th percentile in the two most recent ranking years, placing it near the middle of Washington schools. Graduation is a major strength, with 91.3% of students graduating in 2024–2025 compared with 82.6% statewide. English Language Arts is also a bright spot: 55.83% of students were proficient, above both the district’s 47.79% and the state’s 52.81%. Mathematics remains the clearest challenge, with 29.17% proficiency versus 36.24% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Science proficiency was 42.06%, close to the district’s 43.05% but below the state’s 50.95%.

Among nearby traditional high schools, the larger Walla Walla High School is the strongest academic comparison, outperforming College Place in ELA, math, science, graduation rate, and overall ranking, although the two schools have relatively similar graduation outcomes. College Place generally compares favorably with smaller alternatives such as Waitsburg High School and Lincoln High School in tested subjects. Results from very small schools, including Prescott High School, can fluctuate considerably and are sometimes suppressed. Overall, College Place shows broad recent improvement, but sustained progress in math and science will be important for continued gains.

What people are saying

by a student
Friday, July 6, 2018

As a graduate of the first graduating class this is the best high school. Teachers and students have such meaningful relationships, the staff works endlessly with you to get you graduated and to whatever it may be you want to do after high school! The local news papers twist stories into making my school mates and staff bad. I can personally say I learned so much and I will always love this school. We teach classes differently than a traditional high school and only have three classes a day! Give this school a shot you won’t regret it! Close Quote
