Summary:
The McCleary School District in Washington state is home to a single elementary school, Mccleary Elementary, which serves students from grades K-5. While the school has a relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance lags behind the state averages in key areas like English Language Arts and Math proficiency.
Mccleary Elementary's student population of 332 is predominantly White (78.31%), with smaller representations of Hispanic (11.75%) and students of two or more races (7.53%). The school's overall proficiency rates in ELA (46.53%) and Math (31.34%) fall short of the state averages of 52.63% and 41.68%, respectively. However, the school does show some academic strengths, such as outperforming the state average in 3rd grade ELA proficiency.
Despite its higher-than-average per-student spending of $18,398 and a student-teacher ratio of 15:1, Mccleary Elementary has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Washington elementary schools and maintains a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (65.36%) suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a significant role in its academic performance, and further investigation into resource allocation and instructional practices could provide insights into how to improve student outcomes.
