District-Level NCES Analysis

Quillayute Valley School District operates 6 public schools serving 2,473 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Washington. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 high, 2 elementary, 1 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 3,760 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Clallam County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $26,498 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 4.6% local, 88.6% state, and 6.7% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $38,106 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 94/100, ranked #4 of 240 in Washington against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (4 AP courses district-wide), a 306:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 20.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 49.4% White, 28.7% Hispanic or Latino, 3.6% African American across the district's schools.

Insight School of Washington accounts for 75.6% of all Quillayute Valley School District student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Quillayute Valley School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Quillayute Valley School District has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 56.5% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch

free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
