Summary:
Almira, Washington, is served by a single high-performing K-8 public school, Almira Elementary School, which operates within the top-ranked Almira School District and provides a personalized education for its 129 students with a low student-teacher ratio.
Almira Elementary School consistently outperforms state averages, with particularly strong results in mathematics where student proficiency is nearly 25 points above the state average. The school shows a clear pattern of academic growth, with proficiency in both English and math increasing significantly from 3rd to 8th grade, indicating effective instruction that supports students as they advance.

While the school's statewide ranking has seen a slight decline over the past three years, it remains well above average.

The school's performance within its highly-rated district suggests strong systemic support for continued student success.
