Summary

Lake Roosevelt Junior/Senior High School is a rural 7-12 grade school in Coulee Dam, WA, serving about 308 students in the Grand Coulee Dam School District, which faces significant economic challenges.

This school presents a complex picture: while it consistently graduates over 90% of its students—a rate higher than the state average and notably better than nearby Wilbur Secondary School—its students' proficiency on state tests in English, math, and science is significantly below state averages. For example, its math proficiency is about half the state's rate. The school spends more per student than comparison schools, but these resources have not yet translated into higher test scores, and its overall state ranking has remained in the bottom quartile for years.

Performance varies across different student groups and grade levels, with some, like migrant students, showing dramatic swings in performance from year to year. Compared to Wilbur Secondary, Lake Roosevelt trades stronger graduation success for weaker academic proficiency, raising important questions about priorities and support in a high-need community. The school also operates a separate Lake Roosevelt Alternative School, which serves a high-need population with far fewer resources per student.
