Summary:

Zip code 98528 in Belfair, Washington, contains one public middle school, Hawkins Middle School, serving grades 6-8 within the North Mason School District.

Parents should know that Hawkins Middle School faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom quarter of all Washington middle schools for the last three years. Student proficiency in core subjects like English, math, and science is below the state average, with a notable decline in math scores from 6th to 8th grade. The school serves a community with considerable economic need, with nearly 58% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite these academic struggles, the school spends a substantial $18,628 per student, which is above average. This investment has not yet reversed a concerning trend, as the school's statewide ranking has declined over recent years. The broader North Mason School District itself is ranked in the bottom 11% of districts in the state, indicating these are likely systemic challenges extending beyond the single middle school.
