Summary:
Zip code 98569 is home to exactly one high school, North Beach Senior High School, a public school serving grades 9–12 in Ocean Shores, Washington, with 198 students enrolled in North Beach School District No. 64. Because it is the only high school in the ZIP code, it serves as the entire high school profile for the area, so families here have a single option and all available information about local high school performance comes from this one school.
Academics at the school show a distinct pattern by subject. Science is the clear strength, with 57.81% of students proficient — above both the district (47.47%) and the state (50.95%), including a 9.03 percentage-point advantage over the state at 11th grade. Math is the biggest concern: only 16.98% of students were proficient, which is 26.13 points below the state and 18.44 points below the state at 10th grade, meaning fewer than 1 in 5 students met the math standard. English language arts sits in the middle at 39.62% proficiency, above the district's 35.83% but 13.19 points below the state's 52.81%, with a wider 24.79-point gap at 10th grade. All three subjects improved modestly over the prior year.
The school ranked 253 of 396 high schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 36th percentile with 2 stars — an improvement from the 29th percentile and 1 star the previous year, though still below its 40th-percentile result in 2023–2024. Its graduation rate of 68.1% is 14.5 points below the state's 82.6%, while the dropout rate of 9.0% is slightly better than the state's 9.8%. Context is important: 59.6% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, per-student spending is $19,884, and the student-teacher ratio is 15.4. With only 198 students, year-to-year percentage changes can be volatile, so single-year shifts should be read with caution.
