Summary:
The Summit Valley School District in Washington state has only one school, Summit Valley School, which is an elementary school serving students from preschool through 5th grade. This small school of just 81 students faces significant challenges, with test scores well below the statewide averages and a high poverty rate, with 83.95% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Summit Valley School struggles, with only 25% of students proficient in English Language Arts and 26.79% proficient in Math, compared to statewide averages of 52.63% and 41.68%, respectively. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the past few years, dropping from 698 out of 1,054 elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 568 out of 1,168 in 2023-2024.
Despite the challenges, Summit Valley School benefits from a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.9 to 1 and significant per-student spending of $20,594 by the Summit Valley School District. However, the school's small size and high poverty rates suggest that additional support and intervention may be needed to improve academic outcomes for its students.
