Summary

Washington School is a public prekindergarten–fifth-grade school in Washington, Utah, serving 468 students. It is part of Washington District, which ranks approximately at the 54th percentile among Utah districts. In 2025–2026, Washington ranked 424th of 563 Utah schools, at the 25th percentile with one star. That is an improvement from the 15th percentile in 2024–2025, but the school remains below the statewide midpoint.

Academic achievement is the main concern. In 2025–2026, average proficiency was 38.0% in English language arts, 35.8% in mathematics, and 36.0% in science—below both district and state averages in every reported subject. Science is the largest gap, with fourth- and fifth-grade proficiency at 34.4% and 37.6%. Mathematics and science did improve from the previous year, especially science, but results remain low. Attendance is another important issue: chronic absenteeism declined from 41.5% in 2021–2022 to 28.2% in 2024–2025, yet it remains above the district’s 15.4% and Utah’s 23.8%. The student-teacher ratio also rose to 21.7 in 2024–2025.

Washington serves a relatively high-need student population, with 67.09% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Despite the school’s overall ranking, its low socioeconomic status subgroup ranked at the 66th percentile statewide in 2025–2026, a notable strength. Nearby schools vary widely: Crimson View School ranked at the 97th percentile, while Horizon School ranked at the 86th percentile and Riverside School at the 80th. More comparable schools include Legacy School, Coral Canyon School, and Sandstone School. Overall, the clearest priorities are strengthening math and science, reducing absenteeism, and managing staffing or class-size pressures.
