Summary

Washington Irving Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 792 students in grades PK-5 in Edmond, Oklahoma, which is part of the Edmond School District. While the school generally performs better than the state average on standardized tests, it lags behind the district average, with 37% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 35% in math, compared to 41% and 40% for the district, respectively.

Washington Irving has a higher percentage of low-socioeconomic status students compared to the Edmond district, and has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 12.0% in 2022-2023 to 19.0% in 2024-2025. The school's statewide ranking has also declined in recent years, dropping from 41 out of 411 schools in 2018-2019 to 158 out of 614 in 2024-2025. While the school's overall performance is above the state average, its performance for white students and low-socioeconomic status students is more mixed, suggesting these subgroups may need additional support.

Compared to other nearby elementary schools in the Edmond district, such as John Ross Elementary and Russell Dougherty Elementary, which outperform Washington Irving on test scores, and Ida Freeman Elementary, which lags behind, Washington Irving is a middle-of-the-pack performer in the district. This, combined with the school's lower per-student spending compared to nearby schools, suggests that Washington Irving could benefit from additional resources and support to improve student outcomes.
