Independent school in Tacoma's North End · preschool through grade 12 · 810 K-12 students plus 73 preschoolers (WA SBE, 2024-25) · coed through grade 8, then separate boys' and girls' Upper Schools · day and boarding · IB World School, NWAIS-accredited.
Annie Wright is really three enrollment decisions wearing one 1884-vintage name. A local family buys a coed International Baccalaureate (IB) day school through grade 8, then must decide whether a single-gender Upper School suits their teenager. A boarding family layers a residential program on top, at $57,225 for five-day and $81,085 for seven-day boarding (2026-27) versus $37,520 as a day student. The architecture has no regional parallel: coed below, separate boys' and girls' high schools above, all on one Commencement Bay campus. Neither does the pricing logic. Tuition is deliberately all-inclusive, folding in the mandatory sophomore international expedition and the retreats other schools bill separately. Academics are IB from preschool through diploma with no Advanced Placement (AP) option, so a family must actually want that model. Money is not a worry here, with $77 million in net assets and enrollment up nearly a third since 2021. Interrogate the seams instead: the 8th-to-9th single-sex transition, the day/boarder social mix, and what happens to a student who can't sustain the IB Diploma pace.
