Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98134

Summary:

Zip code 98134 in Seattle contains one public high school, Interagency Programs, which serves grades 6 through 12 within the generally well-regarded Seattle School District No. 1.

This school stands out for its specialized mission and significant resources, featuring an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 6-to-1 and very high per-student spending. However, its academic performance metrics are among the lowest in the state, with a graduation rate of 38.2% and state rankings consistently in the bottom 10% over recent years. This contrast suggests the school serves a high-need student population, with over two-thirds qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and its focus may extend beyond traditional academic measures to include critical support services.

While the surrounding district is high-performing, Interagency Programs operates as a distinct entity addressing specific student challenges. The persistent gap between its substantial resources and standard academic outcomes highlights the complex realities of alternative education, indicating the school likely provides essential stability and services for students who may not thrive in a traditional school setting.
