Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98640

Summary:

The 98640 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Ocean Park Elementary, which serves grades 3-5 and has 196 students. The school is part of the Ocean Beach School District, which is ranked 206 out of 247 school districts in Washington and has a 1-star rating.

Ocean Park Elementary's academic performance is generally below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science all lagging behind. The school's ranking among Washington elementary schools has fluctuated in recent years, with a 1-star rating in the 2023-2024 school year and a 2-star rating in the previous two years. This suggests that the school's performance is not consistently strong compared to other schools in the state. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (75.51%) indicates that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance challenges observed.

Despite the relatively high spending per student ($19,647), the academic performance data suggests that these resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes. The school may need to focus on improving its instructional practices and student support to raise academic achievement, as well as addressing the socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student performance. Continued monitoring of the school's progress and targeted interventions could help drive improvements in the future.
