Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98577

Summary:

Zip code 98577 in Raymond, Washington, is served by three public schools—two elementary schools and one combined junior-senior high—educating about 625 students across two different school districts.

Among these schools, Willapa Elementary stands out as the highest-performing, ranking in the 57th percentile statewide with exceptional science scores and the lowest student-teacher ratio. In contrast, Raymond Junior Senior High School faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom 3% of high schools with very low math proficiency and a graduation rate below the state average. Raymond Elementary School shows recent improvement and performs near state averages in core subjects.

The schools belong to two districts with differing performance: Willapa Valley School District (ranked 98th) and Raymond School District (ranked 212th). While per-student funding is similar across all three schools, academic results vary widely, with a notable performance decline at the secondary level in the Raymond district. Willapa Elementary's strong science achievement and the concerning trend at the junior-senior high school are key points for families to consider.
