Summary

Washington Intermediate is a public elementary school in Washington, IN, serving 536 students in grades 2–4 as part of Washington Community Schools. In 2025–26, it ranked 853rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — 16th percentile, 1 star — and it has never risen above the 23rd percentile in recent years. Its district, Washington Community Schools, ranks 226th of 374 in Indiana.

Academically, Washington Intermediate has the lowest proficiency among nearby schools with reported ILEARN data. In 2025–26, ELA proficiency was 16.67%, math was 30.23%, and science was 25.42%. By comparison, Veale Elementary in the same district posted 57.89% in ELA, 68.42% in math, and 42.11% in science. Otwell Miller Academy had higher proficiency in all three subjects despite a slightly higher free/reduced lunch rate. At the tested grade levels, Washington Intermediate trails both its district and the state: 3rd grade ELA 15.34% vs district 20% vs state 40.8%, and 4th grade ELA 17.98% vs district 21.32% vs state 42.2%. Math and science improved from 2024–25 to 2025–26, but ELA barely moved.

Chronic absenteeism was 17.7% in 2024–25 — the highest among nearby schools and above the state rate of 16.7%, though it has fallen from 31.2% in 2021–22. Poverty is high, with 60.26% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch, but not uniquely high locally. Per-student spending was $12,461 in 2023–24, higher than most nearby schools, and the student–teacher ratio was 14.6, mid-range locally. The key priorities appear to be ELA instruction and continued attendance improvement, with possible lessons from higher-performing nearby schools like Veale Elementary and Otwell Miller Academy.
