Summary

Coupeville Middle School is a small public school in the Coupeville community of Washington’s Whidbey Island, serving 158 students in grades 6–8. It benefits from the strong performance of the Coupeville School District, which ranks 22nd out of 238 Washington districts, placing it in the 91st percentile statewide. The school ranks 137th out of 514 Washington middle schools for 2025–2026, or the 73rd percentile. That is a strong result, although it trails Port Susan Middle School, which ranks in the 82nd percentile, and is slightly ahead of South Whidbey Middle.

Academically, English language arts and science are the school’s clearest strengths. In 2025–2026, 61.84% of students were proficient in ELA, 9.03 percentage points above the Washington rate, while science proficiency reached 63.01%, the highest among the nearby schools compared. Science also improved substantially from 44.44% in 2022–2023. Math is the main area for improvement: 40.79% of students were proficient, slightly below the state rate of 43.11%. Eighth-grade math stands out as the greatest concern, at 32.88%, compared with 49.30% in seventh grade and 38.80% statewide for eighth grade. By comparison, math proficiency at Port Susan Middle School was 52.45%, while South Whidbey Middle was at 45.55%.

Families may also value the school’s favorable 15.6 student-teacher ratio, considerably lower than ratios at Stanwood Middle School and Port Susan Middle School, both 21.4, and South Whidbey Middle, 24.8. The school’s ranking has generally improved from the 36th percentile in 2015–2016, though results have fluctuated recently rather than rising every year. Overall, Coupeville offers a small-school setting with strong ELA and science outcomes, solid statewide standing, and a focused opportunity to strengthen eighth-grade mathematics.
