LOPEZ MIDDLE HIGH SCHOOL

Lopez Middle High School is a Title I public high school that is part of the Lopez School District school district, located in Lopez Island, WA with about 94 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education.
