Summary

Terminal Park Elementary School is a public elementary school (PK-5) serving about 610 students in the Auburn School District, located in a community where a significant number of families face economic challenges.

Academically, Terminal Park is a mid-tier school statewide but stands out as one of the stronger options within its own district. It performs better than several nearby schools like Dick Scobee Elementary School, Chinook Elementary School, and Washington Elementary School. A particular strength is its math program, where student proficiency exceeds both the district and state averages. The school also shows notable effectiveness in supporting students from low-income families and multi-racial students compared to many other schools in Washington.

However, performance varies considerably by grade, with fourth graders typically scoring much higher than third or fifth graders in core subjects. While it outpaces its closest neighbors, Terminal Park trails other district schools like Lea Hill Elementary School and Evergreen Heights Elementary. The school's year-to-year state ranking has fluctuated, and its overall scores remain below the state average, indicating room for growth in achieving more consistent results across all grades and years.
