Summary

Sequim Middle School in Sequim, Washington, serves 548 students in grades 6–8 and is the largest of three nearby middle schools, offering families a relatively large local campus in the Sequim area. The school is part of the Sequim School District, which ranks in the 71st percentile statewide. The school itself ranks in the 70th percentile among Washington schools and received a four-star rating for 2025–26.

Academic results are currently strongest in science and English language arts (ELA). In 2025–26, 63.54% of students were proficient in science, 56.05% in ELA, and 42.30% in math. Sequim’s science and ELA results were above the state averages, while math was slightly below the statewide rate but higher than at both nearby comparison schools. The school has improved substantially since 2022–23, with proficiency gains of 17.39 percentage points in science, 7.79 points in ELA, and 11.86 points in math. Eighth grade is the strongest-performing grade overall, while seventh-grade math—with 34.83% proficiency—is the clearest grade-level challenge.

Compared with Stevens Middle School and Blue Heron Middle School, Sequim has the highest overall ranking and the strongest results in all three tested subjects. Its student-teacher ratio is higher, however, at 19.0 students per teacher, compared with 16.7 at Stevens and 15.6 at Blue Heron. Important areas to monitor include continued math improvement, especially in seventh grade, and support for special education students, whose statewide effectiveness ranking is much lower than the school’s overall ranking. Overall, the data show a school on a notable upward trajectory while still working to make gains more consistent across grades and student groups.

I have a sixth grader so our experience is fairly limited thus far. That being said, I find the teachers to be enthusiastic and genuine. The campus is nice. The fact that 48 of the students qualify for free or reduced lunches is not a plus, but it reflects the economy of the area and not just on the school.
Overall I think we are blessed to have such a great school in our area. Close Quote
