Summary:

This analysis covers two public high schools in zip code 98247, serving Everson, Washington, which together enroll about 535 students in grades 9-12 within the Nooksack Valley School District.

The main school, Nooksack Valley High School, is the comprehensive high school for the area and stands out for its strong graduation rate of 91.1%, which is well above the state average, and its excellent performance in English Language Arts. It serves the vast majority of students. The smaller Nooksack Reengagement program provides an alternative pathway for a few students but operates with significantly lower per-student funding.

While Nooksack Valley High School excels in graduation and English, its math scores are below the state average, indicating an area for potential focus. The school consistently serves a population with high economic need. Notably, the high school's performance in core subjects is significantly stronger than the overall district average, making it a relative strength within the Nooksack Valley School District. The large spending difference between the two schools raises questions about resource allocation for students in different programs.
