Schools

The Coupeville School District offers a wide spectrum of educational opportunities, from thriving public schools to innovative private enterprises. A Gates grant in 2002 allowed Coupeville High School to upgrade their technology and redesign the school to follow a learning community model. Students have more involvement in school operations, and work closely in small groups with an advisor.

The Coupeville district also operates a highly respected after school tutoring program called Learning Partners, and enrichment program called After the Facts, and a special before school elementary reading program.
