Quilcene School District

Located at 294715 US HWY 101 in Quilcene, Washington, the Quilcene School District is an active, traditional public school system serving students across a complete Pre-Kindergarten through 12th-grade continuum. Set in a distant rural environment within the Port Townsend metropolitan region, the district operates two dedicated schools focused on delivering comprehensive public education. As an independent, non-charter district, Quilcene provides local families with a close-knit learning community, offering streamlined access to programs and administrative resources through its primary office and web portal (qsd48.org).

The district supports an overall enrollment of 580 students, comprising 298 male students, 276 female students, and 6 unlisted, with a student body that includes 475 White, 44 Hispanic, 40 multi-racial, 6 American Indian, 4 Pacific Islander, 3 Asian, and 2 Black learners. Enrollment remains steady through the early childhood and middle grade levels—serving cohorts from 9 pre-kindergarteners up to a peak of 68 seventh-grade students—before tapering into intimate high school class sizes that include 24 graduating seniors. To maintain strong instructional support and school operations across its facilities, the district relies on a dedicated workforce consisting of nearly 55 full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers, over 5 instructional aides, and roughly 70 support staff members, totaling over 130 FTE personnel committed to supporting student growth.
