School Overview

Capital High School sits in the heart of Washington's state capital, where the community's civic energy tends to show up in the classroom — students here are surrounded by government, history, and policy in a way that few schools anywhere can match. Families drawn to Olympia's progressive, outdoorsy vibe and its walkable downtown will find Capital a solid fit, with strong English and math scores that reflect a genuinely rigorous academic environment. Science scores have room to grow, but for families planting roots in the South Puget Sound area and looking for a school with real character and a engaged student body, Capital is worth a close look.
