TOUCHET ELEM & HIGH SCHOOL

Touchet Elem & High School is a Title I public school that is part of the Touchet School District school district, located in TOUCHET, WA with about 201 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten 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. With about 18 teachers, Touchet Elem & High School has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. 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.

Touchet Elementary and High School, located at 90 Champion Street in Touchet, Washington, serves as a central educational hub for the small, rural community in Walla Walla County. As a K-12 institution, the school operates on a close-knit campus where students from early childhood through graduation interact within a unified academic environment. The school’s small size is a defining characteristic, allowing for smaller class sizes and a more personalized approach to instruction, which fosters strong relationships between students, teachers, and the surrounding community.

The school is dedicated to preparing its students for future success, whether they intend to pursue higher education or enter the workforce directly. Its curriculum focuses on core academic subjects while maintaining a commitment to the "Redhawk" spirit, which emphasizes sportsmanship, integrity, and local school pride. By leveraging its rural setting, the school often creates unique opportunities for hands-on learning and extracurricular involvement. For families interested in current academic calendars, school board policies, or specific athletic schedules, the district maintains a dedicated portal at [www.touchet.k12.wa.us](http://www.touchet.k12.wa.us).
