Willapa Valley School District

Located at 22 Viking Way in Menlo, Washington, the Willapa Valley School District is an active, traditional public school system dedicated to serving its local Pacific County community. Operating within a distinct rural remote setting, the district manages two operational campuses that together provide a seamless educational journey from kindergarten through 12th grade. Independent of supervisory unions and charter networks, Willapa Valley offers a close-knit, continuous learning environment designed to support students through every stage of their primary and secondary education. Families, prospective residents, and researchers can learn more about district programs by contacting the administrative office at (360) 942-5855 or visiting their official website at www.willapavalley.org.

The district enrolls 344 K–12 students, maintaining a balanced student body of 170 female and 174 male learners across its elementary and secondary grades. To foster academic growth and individualized care for its student population—which includes White, Hispanic, multiracial, American Indian, and Asian students—Willapa Valley maintains a strong, dedicated workforce. The district employs approximately 46.3 full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers, supported by nearly 7 instructional aides and 46 support personnel, bringing total district staffing to over 99 full-time equivalent roles. This favorable staff-to-student presence allows the district to offer focused instruction, robust support services, and a supportive community atmosphere tailored to its rural student body.
