Summary

Enterprise Elementary School is a public elementary school (PK-5) serving about 450 students in the Federal Way School District, an area with a high level of economic need.

While the school's overall state ranking is low, it performs better than the district average in both English and Math, which is a relative strength compared to many nearby schools like Lake Grove Elementary and Olympic View Elementary. The school's performance has been more stable than some neighbors, such as Silver Lake Elementary, which has seen large swings in its ranking. However, there are dramatic differences even among its closest neighbors: Sherwood Forest Elementary performs notably higher, while Panther Lake Elementary performs significantly lower.

A striking comparison is with N.E. Tacoma Elementary, a school just over a mile away in the higher-performing Tacoma School District, which achieves much higher test scores. Enterprise spends more per student than several similar local schools, including Mirror Lake Elementary and Rainier View Elementary. The school has seen its statewide ranking decline over the past decade, and recent data shows its effectiveness has decreased sharply for some student groups while remaining strong for others.
