The Nine Mile Falls School District, in cooperation with the community, is committed to serving each student. We will educate, challenge, and equip each student to realize his/her potential and to become a life long learner who is a contributing member of society. We strive for continuous improvement in all areas of education.

Continuous improvement of an already strong educational program is the focus of the District. Staff engage in ongoing development and improvement of curriculum that is aligned to the Washington State learning standards (Essential Academic Learning Requirements, EALRs). As well, there is an ongoing, concentrated effort to improve teaching through weekly Learning Improvement Collaboration, which occurs each Thursday throughout the District.

This focused effort to continually improve student learning is demonstrated through results from the state’s mandated testing, the rigorous Washington Assessment of Student Learning (WASL). Nine Mile Falls School District has a tradition of doing well and sees steady improvement on the scores each year. In addition, services are available to students with special needs, beginning with a preschool program and continuing through the high school level.
