Overall, the Quincy School District elementary schools underperform compared to state averages, with all 5 schools ranking in the bottom half of Washington. High poverty levels, with free and reduced lunch rates ranging from 72.62% to 91.98%, may contribute to the academic challenges these schools face.

With a predominantly Hispanic student population, the Quincy elementary schools have an opportunity to address the unique needs of their diverse learners and work towards improved outcomes.
