Summary:
The North Franklin School District in Washington state is home to three elementary schools: Connell Elementary, Basin City Elementary, and Mesa Elementary. These schools serve predominantly Hispanic and low-income student populations, with high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Among the three schools, Basin City Elementary stands out as the top performer, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA), Math, and Science compared to the other schools and the district and state averages. Mesa Elementary also shows promise, particularly in Math, where it outperforms the other schools and the district and state averages.
However, the overall performance of the district's elementary schools is concerning, as all three schools consistently underperform the state averages in ELA, Math, and Science proficiency. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by these predominantly low-income and minority student populations. By identifying and learning from the practices of the higher-performing schools, the district can work towards improving educational outcomes for all students in the area.
