Summary

La Conner High School is a small public school serving grades 9–12 in La Conner, Washington, with 177 students and a close-knit setting that is much smaller than nearby comprehensive high schools. The school is part of the La Conner School District, which ranks around the 45th percentile statewide. La Conner High School recently ranked 199th out of 396 Washington schools, or about the 50th percentile, a major improvement from the 17th-percentile ranking reported the prior year.

The strongest current academic result is English language arts: 60.0% of students were proficient in 2025–26, above both the district’s 44.49% and the state’s 52.81%. This also exceeded results at Burlington Edison High School and Mount Vernon High School, though it remained below Anacortes High School. Math proficiency improved substantially, from 15.63% to 33.33%, but remains below the state’s 43.11%. Science reached 37.5%, also below the district and state. These results suggest meaningful recent progress, while math and science remain important areas for continued support. The school serves a relatively high-need population, with 69.49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25.

The 2024–25 graduation rate was 81.0%, close to Washington’s 82.6% but below the nearby comparison schools, particularly Anacortes at 97.9%. Graduation results have varied considerably from year to year, which is common in a school this small. A student-teacher ratio of 15.3 to 1 may allow more individualized attention, although it does not guarantee smaller classes or broader course options. Overall, La Conner High School appears to be in a recent improvement phase rather than a consistently high-performing position. Parents may see encouraging momentum in literacy and mathematics, but should also consider the school’s uneven long-term rankings, below-state graduation rate, and need for sustained improvement in math, science, and outcomes for some student groups.
