The number of homeless students in Washington has climbed nearly 34 percent over the past five years, even in rural districts, where there’s often little help for youth and families without a roof. Click on a district to see how numbers have changed, and how many shelter beds there are for youth and families.
Note: School districts with 10 or fewer homeless students or with only one year of data were reported as a zero percent change.
