School Overview

Options High School is an alternative high school in Bellingham, a laid-back Pacific Northwest city nestled between Seattle and Vancouver, known for its outdoor culture, arts scene, and Western Washington University. As an alternative program, it serves students who thrive outside the traditional classroom structure, making it a good fit for families looking for a more flexible, individualized approach to education. Academic outcomes here tend to run below state averages, so families with strong college-prep priorities may want to weigh that alongside the school's alternative model.
