School Overview

The 10th Street School is an alternative middle and high school program located in Marysville, Washington, operating under the umbrella of the Marysville School District. Unlike traditional secondary schools, 10th Street is widely recognized for its unique, relationship-based educational model. The school emphasizes a close-knit community atmosphere where students are encouraged to take an active role in their own learning, often utilizing a multi-age grouping structure that allows students to learn collaboratively across grade levels.

The academic philosophy at 10th Street focuses on project-based learning, individual accountability, and personal growth. Because of its smaller enrollment size, the school is able to provide a highly supportive environment for students who may struggle in large, conventional classroom settings.
