The short answer

Record last released by NCES on Jul 1, 2026.

Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.

How do students fare?

  • ED has no 2022-23 chronic absence count for this school.
  • ED’s own figures for 2022-23: 0.0% for its district and 34.7% for Washington.
  • In 2022-23, 5% or less of the 109 students in its four-year cohort graduated with a regular diploma within four years: ED publishes a range, not a figure, to protect students’ privacy.
  • In 2021-22, 5% or less of the 70 students in its four-year cohort graduated with a regular diploma within four years: ED publishes a range, not a figure, to protect students’ privacy.

What kind of school is it, and who does it serve?

  • A public alternative school for grades 11 to 12.
  • Open in NCES’s 2025-26 directory, which is still preliminary.
  • NCES gives no 2024-25 count of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch for this school.
  • Around the school, a family with children aged 5 to 17 has an income of about 296% of the federal poverty threshold for its size (100% is at the threshold), by NCES’s 2021-22 estimate from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey of 2018-2022; its standard error is 61 points.
  • That describes the school’s neighbourhood, which NCES says may differ from the neighbourhoods its students live in.

Who runs it?

  • Run by Renton Technical College, its local education agency in NCES’s directory.
  • District spending, fiscal year 2024: the Census Bureau’s survey of school system finances gives no spending per student for the agency that runs it.

Has anything been proven against it?

  • Federal school data don’t record findings against a school: the counts here are what the school reported, and the Office for Civil Rights’ own investigations aren’t included.

What the record doesn’t say

  • Federal school data arrive one to three years after the school year they describe, so each figure here carries its own year.
  • To protect students’ privacy, ED adds or takes away one at random from chronic absence counts of four or fewer, so a small count may be one off.
  • ED publishes each school’s test results in reading and language arts and in mathematics, but they aren’t loaded here yet.
  • ED publishes most schools’ results as ranges, wider for smaller schools, to protect students’ privacy: each is shown as ED publishes it, never as a single figure.
