Summary:
The Adna School District in Chehalis, WA, consists of two schools serving 634 students from preschool through 12th grade, with the district ranking in the 63rd percentile statewide.
Families will find a notable difference in performance between the two schools. Adna Elementary School is a clear standout, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 16% of elementary schools, with student proficiency in English, math, and science significantly above state averages. In contrast, Adna Middle/High School has a 2-star rating and performs below state averages in most subjects, with a particularly low math proficiency rate of 27%.
The most striking insight is the significant performance gap that emerges after elementary school. While elementary students excel, especially in subjects like 3rd-grade math, academic outcomes decline in the middle and high school grades. This trend occurs even though the middle/high school receives more funding per student, suggesting the district faces specific challenges in supporting adolescent learners and ensuring a smooth academic transition between school levels.
