This single-school district ranks 5th out of 46 DC districts (89th percentile, 5 stars), while the school itself ranks 21st out of 124 DC elementary schools (83rd percentile, 4 stars) for 2025–2026.

The school has been very stable over time, ranking in the 82nd to 86th percentile over the past three school years with a consistent 4-star rating. Washington Yu Ying PCS also benefits from strong resources: a 10:1 student-teacher ratio, which suggests small class sizes, and per-student spending of $24,640, reflecting a high level of financial investment per child. Free and reduced-price lunch data is not reported, which limits demographic analysis. Overall, the data paint a picture of a stable, well-resourced school with impressive academic outcomes, particularly in math and science relative to DC averages.
