Summary

Helen Haller Elementary School is a public school in Sequim, Washington, serving 508 students in grades 2–5 as part of the Sequim School District. The school has a 15.5-to-1 student-teacher ratio and is located about three miles from Greywolf Elementary School, which serves younger students in grades PK–2. Helen Haller ranks in the 66th percentile among Washington elementary schools, while its district ranks in the 71st percentile statewide.

Mathematics is the school’s clearest strength. In 2025–26, 58.61% of students were proficient in math—above both the district rate of 46.88% and the state rate of 43.11%. It was the highest math result among the nearby schools with reported results, slightly ahead of Dry Creek Elementary and Hamilton Elementary. ELA proficiency was 53.86%, close to the state average but below the district, while science proficiency was 54.14%, above the state but below the district and several nearby schools. Hamilton Elementary was a particularly strong nearby comparison in ELA and science, with 67.04% and 80.39% proficiency, respectively.

Parents should also note that results declined from the previous year in ELA, math, and science, contributing to a drop from the 75th to the 66th statewide percentile. Science is the most notable academic area to watch, while 4th-grade ELA and 5th-grade math offer additional opportunities for improvement. The school’s relative effectiveness is especially strong for low-income students and Hispanic students, whose subgroup rankings were at the 89th and 88th percentiles statewide. Special education outcomes remain a concern, however, ranking at the 21st percentile despite improvement from earlier years. With per-student spending of $20,103, Helen Haller combines relatively high spending, typical staffing levels, and strong math performance, but should focus on reversing recent declines and improving support for students receiving special education services.
