Summary

Olympic Peninsula Academy is a small K–12 alternative school in Sequim, Washington, with 117 students in the Sequim School District, an area district ranked 69th out of 238 statewide. The school is near several other alternative programs, including Dungeness Virtual School, just 0.14 miles away. About 47.01% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, indicating a student population with a moderate level of economic need.

The school’s clearest strength is English Language Arts. In 2025–2026, 66.22% of students were proficient, compared with 55.78% in the district and 52.81% statewide. That was higher than results at Dungeness Virtual School, Ocean, Seaview Academy, and PI Program, though below Olympic Peninsula HomeConnection’s 76%. Math is the main concern: 36.49% were proficient, below both the district and state, and down from 44.16% the prior year. Sixth-grade math was especially weak at 26.67%, although small cohorts and suppressed grade-level results mean these figures should be viewed cautiously.

Science appears to have been another strength historically, with proficiency of 60% or higher in each of the three previous years and results above district and state levels. However, the 2025–2026 all-grades science result was suppressed, so current performance is unknown rather than poor. Compared with nearby alternatives, the school reports a favorable 17.9-to-1 student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending, though different program structures make direct comparisons difficult. Overall, it stands out as a literacy-focused alternative school with historically strong science performance and a significant need to improve mathematics.
