Summary

Legacy High School is a public school serving grades 6-12 to about 341 students in the Evergreen School District (Clark) in Vancouver, WA, but it has been consistently ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in Washington state for the past decade.

Academic proficiency in core subjects is significantly below both district and state averages, with particularly low scores in math and notable gaps for male students and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Interestingly, despite these low test scores, the school's graduation rate is strong and exceeds the state average, creating a puzzling disconnect between academic mastery and earning a diploma. Furthermore, the school spends more per student than many comparable schools in the area, such as Union High School and Mountain View High School, yet yields the lowest academic outcomes.

When compared to other schools, Legacy stands out within its own district; for example, Henrietta Lacks Health and Bioscience High School, which serves a similar student population, achieves dramatically higher proficiency rates. This contrast, along with Legacy's volatile dropout rates, suggests the school's traditional comprehensive model may be less effective for its students than the specialized approaches used by some nearby alternative programs, indicating a need for targeted interventions and potentially transformative changes.
