Summary:

The 98465 zip code in Tacoma, Washington, contains just one high school, The School at Pearl Youth Residence, which serves a small group of students in grades 6 through 12.

This school is highly distinctive, operating as a micro-school with only 21 students, which allows for a great deal of individualized attention. It serves a wide grade range from middle to high school and its name suggests it is a specialized institution, likely providing alternative or residential programming for a specific student population. A key feature is its high level of investment, with per-student spending reported at $30,335 for the 2023-2024 year, which is significantly above typical public school averages and indicates substantial resources dedicated to support services.

The school is part of the Tacoma School District, which is ranked in the 36th percentile statewide. While the school itself is well-resourced, parents should note the available data does not include common academic performance metrics or student-teacher ratios, making direct comparisons to traditional comprehensive high schools difficult. The setting represents a focused, high-support educational model for the students it serves.
