Summary

Granite Falls High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 to 614 students in the Granite Falls School District, a district that ranks in the bottom 20% statewide, yet the school itself is a consistent performer that has been steadily improving.

The school's greatest strength is its exceptional 91.6% graduation rate, which is the highest among most nearby high schools, including those in the Marysville School District like Marysville Pilchuck High School (77.1%) and significantly higher than its own district's alternative school, Crossroads High School (40.7%). Academically, it outperforms its district averages, with English and Science proficiency rates above the state average, though math scores are an area for growth. The school is notably effective in supporting students from lower-income families, ranking in the 78th percentile for this group.

When compared regionally, Lake Stevens Senior High School in the Lake Stevens School District ranks higher academically but serves a less economically diverse population. Granite Falls High School demonstrates that strong outcomes, particularly in graduation, can be achieved regardless of broader district challenges, making it a standout school in its area.
