Summary

Washington School is an elementary school located in Washington, Utah, serving grades PK-5 with 443 students. It is part of the Washington District, which is ranked 37 out of 93 districts in Utah and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, over the past 10 years, Washington School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Utah elementary schools, with a 1-2 star rating.

The school's performance is concerning, with consistently low test scores across all grade levels and subjects compared to the district and state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, only 30.5% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Math, compared to 49.8% in the district and 48.6% statewide. Additionally, Washington School has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.2% to 31.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school also serves a high proportion of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 55.3% to 58.75% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

When comparing Washington School to other nearby schools in the Washington District, such as Crimson View School and Horizon School, it becomes clear that Washington School is underperforming. Addressing the school's challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism and low academic performance, will be crucial in helping it improve and better serve its students.
