While the district is ranked 192 out of 606 in Pennsylvania and has a 3-star rating, Washington Elementary School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, going from 581 out of 1,511 Pennsylvania elementary schools in 2024-2025 (3-star rating) to 879 out of 1,526 in 2023-2024 (2-star rating) and 920 out of 1,534 in 2022-2023 (2-star rating).

Despite the school's fluctuating ranking, it outperforms the district and state in several key areas.

Washington Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 37.77% in 2023-2024, indicating a potentially economically disadvantaged student population. The school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $14,102, and the student-teacher ratio is 14.5 to 1 for the 2023-2024 school year. These factors may contribute to the school's academic performance, though further analysis would be needed to establish a clear connection.
