Summary

Washougal High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 to approximately 942 students in the Washougal School District, a district performing in the top third of the state.

The school is on a strong upward trend, now ranking in the top third of all Washington high schools, with particular strengths in English Language Arts and Science that outperform both state averages and many nearby schools like Mountain View High School and Evergreen High School. Most notably, Washougal achieves these solid academic results and a high graduation rate while effectively supporting students with greater economic need, ranking exceptionally well for its support of homeless students, students in special education, and students from lower-income families.

While math proficiency is an area identified for growth, the school operates cost-effectively and its consistent improvement suggests effective programs. Compared to elite neighboring districts like Camas School District (home to Camas High School), Washougal serves a different demographic but stands out for its ability to help students succeed relative to its resources.
