HILLTOP SCHOOL

Hilltop School is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Ocean Beach School District school district, located in Ilwaco, WA with about 327 students offering grade levels from 5th Grade to 8th 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. With about 16 teachers, Hilltop School has a student/teacher ratio of about 20:1. 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.

Hilltop School, located in Ilwaco, Washington, serves as a key educational facility within the Ocean Beach School District. Situated along the scenic southwestern coast of the state, the school is part of a district dedicated to providing comprehensive learning opportunities for students in the Long Beach Peninsula area. Its physical location on Brumbach Street places it within a small-town community setting, reflecting the district’s focus on fostering a supportive and localized academic environment.

As an extension of the Ocean Beach School District, Hilltop School aligns with the district's broader mission to prepare students for future success through rigorous curriculum standards and community engagement. The school leverages the resources of the larger district to offer students access to essential educational programming and support services.
