Intergenerational High School

Located in the small-city environment of Bellingham, Washington, Intergenerational High School operates as an active, independent public charter district serving the local metropolitan community. Situated at 1 Bellis Fair Parkway, this single-school district focuses exclusively on high school education, providing an academic continuum for students in grades 9 through 12. Functioning as its own local educational agency for federal programs, the school offers an alternative secondary learning path designed to prepare young adults for post-secondary pursuits, maintaining active lines of communication with families through its dedicated web portal.

The district fosters a remarkably close-knit learning community, enrolling 107 students across its four grade levels—comprising 35 freshmen, 18 sophomores, 27 juniors, and 27 seniors. This diverse student body includes representation across multiple racial and ethnic backgrounds, including White, Hispanic, American Indian, Multiracial, Asian, Black, and Pacific Islander scholars. Intergenerational High School stands out for its strong instructional context, employing 16 full-time equivalent teachers supported by just over five full-time support personnel. This generous staffing capacity results in an exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of roughly seven to one, allowing educators to deliver highly individualized instruction and robust holistic support to every student.
