Silver Ridge Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (17.56%) and multi-racial (22.48%) students compared to nearby schools. The school's performance on science assessments is notably stronger than the district and state averages, with 66.67% of students proficient or better. However, the school's ranking has declined in recent years, and it performs below average for certain student subgroups, such as special education and low-income students. Nearby Emerald Heights Elementary consistently outperforms Silver Ridge, while some other local schools, like Pinecrest Elementary, perform significantly worse.
The school's proximity to military bases is an important consideration, as its ranking for "Military-Connected Students" has declined from 20th out of 50 Washington elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 46th out of 48 in 2022-2023, with a 0-star rating. This suggests that Silver Ridge Elementary may need to re-evaluate its support and resources for this student population. Overall, the school has some areas of strength, but the declining statewide ranking and performance gaps for certain student groups indicate that the school could benefit from a closer examination of its instructional practices, resource allocation, and support systems to ensure all students are reaching their full potential.
