Summary

Wisdom Ridge Academy is a K–12 alternative school serving about 200 students in Ridgefield, Washington, within the relatively highly ranked Ridgefield School District, which places around the 70th percentile statewide.

The school’s academic results are mixed, with English language arts (ELA) stronger than math and science. In 2025–26, 50.00% of students met standards in ELA, compared with 63.38% in the district and 52.81% statewide. Math was the clearest concern: 21.51% met standards, versus 55.75% in the district and 43.11% statewide. Science performance was also low at 29.73%, compared with 57.54% districtwide and 50.95% statewide. The strongest identifiable result was 10th-grade ELA at 74.29%, above the state rate, while 7th- and 8th-grade ELA results were much lower. Available math results were weak in both 7th and 10th grades, and science results were below district levels in both 8th and 11th grades. Several elementary-grade results are state-suppressed, meaning they are unknown rather than zero. Recent trends are concerning: math fell from roughly 29%–30% in earlier years to 21.51%, while science declined from 48.89% in 2023–24 to 29.73%.

Compared with nearby alternative schools, Wisdom Ridge was in the middle or lower range academically. The nearby CAM Academy was a particularly strong benchmark, reporting 73.47% ELA, 66.58% math, and 71.79% science, with a similar free/reduced-price lunch rate. River HomeLink also exceeded Wisdom Ridge in ELA and science. Wisdom Ridge’s reported student-teacher ratio rose to 40.0 in 2024–25, although alternative-school staffing models can make this figure different from actual class size. Parents may want to ask about math interventions, recent science and ELA declines, staffing changes, and graduation or dropout data, which were not supplied.
