GREEN HILL ACADEMIC SCHOOL

Green Hill Academic School is a public high school that is part of the Chehalis School District school district, located in Chehalis, WA with about 179 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 17 teachers, Green Hill Academic School has a student/teacher ratio of about 10:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Green Hill Academic School is an educational facility located in Chehalis, Washington, operating within the grounds of the Green Hill School, a juvenile rehabilitation institution managed by the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF). The academic program is designed to meet the unique needs of incarcerated youth, offering a curriculum that emphasizes credit recovery, high school completion, and the attainment of General Educational Development (GED) certificates. By providing a structured learning environment, the school aims to bridge the educational gaps often faced by its students and prepare them for successful reintegration into society.

Beyond core academic subjects, the school integrates vocational training and life-skills development into its mission to foster long-term personal growth. The instructional staff works closely with students to create individualized education plans, ensuring that those in the justice system have access to the same educational standards as their peers in traditional public schools. Ultimately, Green Hill Academic School serves as a critical component of the rehabilitation process, prioritizing academic achievement as a pathway to reducing recidivism and improving future career prospects for its students.
