Summary:
Toutle Lake School District is home to a single elementary school, Toutle Lake Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. Located in the rural community of Toutle, Washington, the school's performance and characteristics provide a mixed picture, with both strengths and areas for improvement.
Academically, Toutle Lake Elementary's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math are generally below the state averages, with the exception of 3rd and 5th-grade ELA scores, which are slightly above the state average. However, the school excels in science, with proficiency rates above the state average across all grades. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 563 out of 1,169 schools in 2022-2023 to 624 out of 1,168 schools in 2023-2024, with a 2-3 star rating on a 5-star scale.
Demographically, Toutle Lake Elementary has a predominantly white student population, with 83.59% of students identifying as white. The school also serves a relatively high proportion of students (49.49%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher percentage of students from low-income families. Despite these socioeconomic factors, the school's spending per student is $16,057, which is higher than the state average, and the student-teacher ratio is 16.9, slightly lower than the state average. These resource allocations, however, do not appear to be directly translating to higher academic achievement, suggesting that other factors may be at play in the school's performance.
