Summary

Walker-Jones Education Campus is a Washington, DC, public school serving 292 students in PK–8. In 2025–2026, 24% of students were proficient in English Language Arts (ELA) and 10% in mathematics. The clearest concern is mathematics, where proficiency was especially low compared with state and district results.

ELA is the school’s stronger subject relative to both local and statewide benchmarks: 24% of Walker-Jones students were proficient, compared with 40% statewide and 44% in the District of Columbia Public Schools. Mathematics proficiency was 10%, versus 28% statewide and 33% in the district. Among nearby PK–8 schools with comparable all-grades results, Walker-Jones fell between Capitol Hill Montessori School at Logan (42% in ELA) and Center City PCS - Shaw (12%); in math, its 10% was below both schools’ results of 18% and 12%. Some grades stand out as particular challenges: 3rd-grade ELA proficiency was 3%, and 8th-grade math was 4%.

The two-year pattern is mixed: ELA proficiency fell from 27% to 24%, while math rose from 4% to 10%, narrowing the school’s gaps with the state and district. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking improved from 89th of 128 schools and the 30th percentile in 2024–2025 to 79th of 124 and the 36th percentile in 2025–2026; its rating remained 2 stars. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 8.1, the lowest among nearby schools with reported ratios, while 81% of students were directly certified for free meals, compared with a nearby average of 48% for the same measure and year. Historical SchoolDigger rankings were higher for At Risk Students (57th percentile in 2018–2019, 21 points above the school overall) and lower for Special Education Students (16th percentile, 20 points below overall), suggesting different relative results for those groups at that time. These subgroup figures are historical, and some grade-level results are unavailable.
