Summary

Omak High School is a public high school serving 442 students in grades 9-12 within the Omak School District, which serves a high-need community in rural Washington.

The school faces significant academic challenges, particularly in mathematics, where only 9.7% of students are proficient, a rate far below the state average and lower than nearby Okanogan High School (29.7%). However, it shows a notable strength in science, outperforming the state average. English scores have been highly inconsistent year-to-year. Despite these academic struggles, Omak High School spends more per student than most comparison schools and maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio. Its graduation rate is stable but slightly trails the state average, while its dropout rate is higher.

An interesting local comparison is the Washington Virtual Academy Omak High School, a virtual school in the same district that shows higher proficiency in math and English while spending less per student. The school's overall state ranking has declined recently, and the extreme volatility in some test scores suggests potential instability in programs or curriculum that parents may want to inquire about.
