Summary

Mount Erie Elementary is a well-regarded public school serving about 327 students in grades K-5 within the high-performing Anacortes School District in Washington.

The school consistently earns strong 4-star ratings, with student test scores in English, Math, and Science regularly above the state average. A key strength is its effective support for all students, as it maintains this solid academic performance while serving a higher percentage of students from lower-income families than its district peers, Fidalgo Elementary and Island View Elementary. Mount Erie shows particular historical success in educating students in special education and multi-racial groups.

When compared to schools in neighboring districts, Mount Erie's performance is notably strong. All three Anacortes elementary schools rank in the top 30% of schools statewide, while many in nearby districts like Burlington-Edison and La Conner rank much lower. Within its own district, Mount Erie's students tend to perform strongest in 4th grade, with a slight dip in 5th grade, a different pattern than the steady growth seen at Fidalgo. The school also uses its resources efficiently, achieving excellent results with per-student spending similar to other schools in the area.
