Shadle Park High School

Public Grades 9-12

304^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 396 Washington High Schools

Better than 23% of Washington high schools

Summary

Shadle Park High School is a grades 9–12 public school in Spokane, Washington, serving 1,445 students in a diverse, economically mixed community as part of Spokane School District. The school ranks in the 23rd percentile statewide, placing it 304th among Washington high schools, although its latest ranking is better than the previous year’s. Its student-teacher ratio is 17.8:1, and per-student spending was $19,084 in 2023–24—figures broadly similar to nearby comprehensive high schools.

Graduation is one of Shadle Park’s relative strengths. The 2024–25 graduation rate was 88.8%, above Washington’s 82.6% but below the district’s 90.3% and nearby North Central High School at 93.8%, The Community School at 92.0%, and Rogers High School at 91.0%. However, Shadle Park’s dropout rate of 7.4% is higher than the district’s 5.6% and North Central’s 4.9%. This increase from 4.2% in 2020–21 suggests that attendance, persistence, and re-engagement deserve attention.

Academic achievement is the school’s clearest challenge, especially in mathematics. In 2025–26, 16.95% of tested students were proficient in math, compared with 39.62% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. English language arts proficiency was 42.9%, below the district’s 48.23%, while science was 39.9%; science showed encouraging improvement from 30.81% the prior year. Shadle Park outperformed Rogers in all three tested subjects but trailed North Central substantially, including 44.97% math proficiency at North Central. Overall, the most important priorities are sustained math improvement, stronger support for students at risk of dropping out, and examining the practices behind recent science gains and earlier stronger ELA results.

What people are saying

by a student
Saturday, November 30, 2019

Covers little material over one year. The science department was seriously lacking in information and pace, however English covered very useful and informative material. Overall, the teaching was slow and not engaging. Every class catered to the slowest kid, who is also usually the least motivated. As a result, everyone else's growth was stunted. The restroom situation was ridiculous. Admin may as well have wiped my ass for me when I finished. This isn't a place where children become adults. Close Quote
