Summary

Interagency Programs is a small, non-traditional high school serving 211 students in grades 6-12 within the generally high-performing Seattle School District No. 1, distinguished by its very low student-teacher ratio and its mission to serve students through collaboration with other support agencies.

The school serves a student population with significant needs, and this is reflected in its performance metrics; it consistently ranks in the bottom percentiles statewide, with a 38.2% graduation rate and a 26.9% dropout rate, which are dramatically lower than nearby comprehensive high schools like West Seattle High School (93.0% graduation) and Cleveland High School STEM (97.7% graduation). To support its students, the school allocates intensive resources, spending approximately $44,768 per student—about double the amount of schools like Garfield High School—and maintains a 6-to-1 student-teacher ratio.

While traditional academic outcomes are low, the data suggests Interagency Programs functions as an essential alternative setting for students who have struggled elsewhere, showing relative effectiveness with its Special Education students. The school's role is similar to other specialized programs like Seattle World School, and its high spending and low ratios indicate it provides critical stability and services that aren't fully captured by standard test scores and rankings alone.
