Orca Named a School of Distinction

Congratulations to Orca!  We are one of five schools in Seattle to be named a School of Distinction by the Center for Educational Effectiveness.  This award is in recognition of outstanding academic improvements in math and reading, putting Orca in the top 5 percent of highest-improving schools in the state of Washington.  It should be noted that Orca is the only alternative and K-8 school listed and this will be our third year receiving this honor.  We are out of 99 schools statewide to meet this performance criterion and will be honored later in the month.  This is a tribute to our community and collective efforts to continue to look at best practices while not sacrificing the values of our school culture!  BRAVO!!!!
