Summary:

ZIP code 98271 in Marysville includes three public high schools serving grades 9–12—Marysville Pilchuck High School, Legacy High School, and Heritage School—all operated by the Marysville School District; together, they enroll about 1,455 students and offer very different school sizes and outcomes.

Marysville Pilchuck High School is the largest school, with 1,182 students, and has the strongest overall completion results. Its 77.1% graduation rate is higher than those of Legacy High School at 70.7% and Heritage School at 52.9%. It also has the lowest dropout rate, at 14.7%, and the highest current English language arts proficiency rate, at 42.92%. However, its mathematics proficiency rate is only 15.42%, well below district and state levels. Legacy High School is much smaller, with 143 students, and has the best student-teacher ratio and strongest reported science performance. Its 41.67% science proficiency rate exceeds the district rate, though its graduation and dropout results remain concerning.

Heritage School, with 130 students, shows the greatest need on the available measures. It has the lowest graduation rate, highest dropout rate, lowest current ELA proficiency, and highest free/reduced-price lunch rate. Its current mathematics and science results are suppressed, as are some results for Legacy High School, so missing figures should not be treated as zero. Overall, Marysville Pilchuck High School appears strongest for graduation and broad academic outcomes, Legacy High School offers a mixed profile with notable science and staffing strengths, and Heritage School has the weakest reported outcomes.
