Summary:

The Central Valley School District in Washington serves approximately 3,171 middle school students across six schools for grades 6-8, with the district itself ranking in the 74th percentile statewide.

Performance varies significantly between schools. Horizon Middle School (82nd percentile) and Evergreen Middle School (81st percentile) are the district's top performers, with Evergreen leading in math and science proficiency. In contrast, North Pines Middle School (17th percentile) and Bowdish Middle School (25th percentile) have much lower state rankings and proficiency rates, particularly in mathematics. Greenacres Middle School and Selkirk Middle School fall in the middle of the district's performance range.

Notably, higher per-student spending does not guarantee better results, as Bowdish receives the most funding but has low proficiency. The district's average test scores exceed Washington state averages in all subjects, but the wide gap between its highest and lowest-performing schools indicates that overall district performance masks important internal differences. Parents should note that seventh grade tends to be the strongest for English Language Arts across most schools, while eighth-grade math scores show the largest performance gap between schools.
