Skamania School District

The Skamania School District in Washington state is home to a single public elementary school, Skamania Elementary, which serves grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 73 students.

While Skamania Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, from a low of 1 star in 2018-2019 to a high of 3 stars in 2022-2023, its academic performance remains a concern. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (48%) and Math (24%) are below the statewide averages, though its Science proficiency rate (50%) is slightly above the state average. The school's high free/reduced lunch rate of 50.68% suggests it serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to its academic performance.

Despite the school's academic challenges, it spends significantly more per student ($24,385) compared to the state average, and it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.2 to 1. These factors suggest that the school is making efforts to address the needs of its students, but the effectiveness of these efforts remains unclear. As a small school with limited resources, Skamania Elementary may face unique challenges in providing a well-rounded education to its students.
