Summary:
The 98569 zip code area is home to two schools - Ocean Shores Elementary and North Beach Senior High School, both part of the North Beach School District No. 64. While the high school performs slightly better than the elementary school, both institutions face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students.
Ocean Shores Elementary ranks in the bottom 12% of Washington elementary schools, with relatively low academic performance and proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math that are significantly below state averages. The school also has a high percentage of students (76.25%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population. In contrast, North Beach Senior High School performs slightly better, ranking in the bottom 36% of Washington high schools, but still struggles with a concerning graduation rate of 71.1% and a dropout rate of 20%, both of which are below state averages.
Across both schools, the data suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes, particularly in math and English language arts. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, coupled with the relatively high spending per student, indicates that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution. Careful analysis of how resources are being utilized and targeted interventions to address the unique needs of the student population will be crucial in driving meaningful improvements and ensuring all students have the opportunity to succeed.
