Summary

Raisbeck Aviation High School is a small, specialized public high school in Tukwila serving about 400 students in grades 9–12, with an aviation and STEM focus that sets it apart from larger neighborhood schools in the Highline School District.

Raisbeck is one of Washington’s strongest public schools academically, despite the district’s relatively low statewide ranking. It ranked 4th out of 396 Washington schools in 2025–26 and has consistently placed in the state’s 96th–99th percentile. In 2025–26, 67.96% of students met the math standard and 82.80% met the science standard—well above both state and district results. The latest English language arts result was suppressed by the state, so it should be treated as unavailable rather than as a zero. Recent results remain excellent, although math proficiency has declined from 80.81% in 2022–23 to 67.96% in 2025–26, making that trend worth watching.

The school also shows strong results across several student groups, including a first-place statewide ranking for students from low-income backgrounds in both 2024–25 and 2025–26. Among nearby schools, Cleveland High School STEM is the closest academic comparison: it ranked 72nd statewide and had a 97.7% graduation rate, but Raisbeck had higher 2025–26 math and science proficiency. Evergreen High School, a much larger comprehensive school, reported 13.51% math and 18.75% science proficiency. These comparisons require caution because schools differ in size, mission, enrollment, and student needs. Raisbeck’s graduation and dropout rates were not provided, so those outcomes cannot be compared from the available data. Its per-student spending was $18,925 in 2023–24, below several nearby schools.
