MIDDLE COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL
Middle College High School is a public high school that is part of the Seattle School District No. 1 school district, located in SEATTLE, WA with about 64 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 8 teachers, Middle College High School has a student/teacher ratio of about 8:1. 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.
Middle College High School (MCHS), located on the campus of North Seattle College, is a unique alternative high school program designed for students who are looking for a non-traditional educational environment. The school primarily serves juniors and seniors who are seeking a smaller, more personalized setting, often focusing on those who may have struggled in a large comprehensive high school or who want to get a head start on their post-secondary education. By integrating high school coursework with the college campus experience, MCHS provides students with the autonomy and maturity needed to transition successfully into adulthood.
Academically, the school emphasizes a blend of rigorous high school requirements and the opportunity for students to enroll in college-level courses through the Running Start program. This dual-enrollment approach allows students to earn high school credits while simultaneously accumulating college credits, often at no cost. Because of its location and structure, the school fosters a culture of independence and academic responsibility, preparing students for the expectations of higher education or vocational training well before they graduate.
