Summary
Seaview Academy is a K–12 alternative school in Port Angeles, Washington, serving 238 students in the North Olympic Peninsula area. It is part of the Port Angeles School District, which ranks 58th among Washington’s 238 districts and is rated in the 76th percentile statewide. Seaview is larger than nearby alternatives, including Crescent School, Olympic Peninsula Academy, Olympic Peninsula HomeConnection, and Dungeness Virtual School. The school serves a relatively high-need population: 65.13% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, compared with roughly 46%–51% at nearby schools with comparable data.
Seaview’s most important concerns involve graduation, dropout rates, and mathematics. Its 2024–25 graduation rate was 43.6%, compared with 73.9% in the district and 82.6% statewide. Its dropout rate was 38.0%, more than twice the district rate of 17.2% and well above the state rate of 9.8%. Results have varied considerably by year, so student transfers, changing cohorts, and alternative-program enrollment patterns may affect the figures. Mathematics is the clearest academic weakness: only 13.33% of tested students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 44.96% in the district and 43.11% statewide. Seaview also trailed the nearby schools on math, including 18.75% at Dungeness Virtual School, 30.09% at Crescent School, and 44.00% at Olympic Peninsula HomeConnection.
English language arts proficiency was 40.0% in 2025–26, below both district and state results, while science was 44.44%; however, 11th-grade science was a relative bright spot at 56.0%, nearly matching the district and exceeding the state. Many grade-level results are suppressed to protect student privacy, so missing figures should not be interpreted as zero. Seaview also reported a student-teacher ratio of 29.7, higher than most nearby alternatives, and per-student spending of $5,759, the lowest among the listed schools in 2023–24. Overall, the data point to priorities in dropout prevention, student reengagement, math instruction, credit recovery, and closer tracking of student pathways, while recognizing that Seaview’s larger, higher-need population and alternative-school model make simple comparisons imperfect.
