GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great school. Great diversity. Love that my child gets to experience lots of different cultures and we can talk about them all at home. Counselors and Principal have been very supportive of actually helping the kids deal with emotions rather than dictate their behavior.

The quality of education has drastically decreased over the past few years. The principal doesn't address parent concerns. My child started to hate school. Many days she came home hungry and said she didn't have enough time to eat lunch. I don't recommend this school.

My kids have gone here a few years and we've had terrible experiences! The principal does not truly care about your problems and the receptionists are not friendly. I do not recommend this school or any school in the Olympia School District! Not a good place for conservative or God-fearing families....
