Summary:

Longview School District includes nine elementary schools serving students from prekindergarten through fifth grade in the Longview area, with 2,953 students overall and a mix of stronger and developing academic programs. Eight schools have comparable 2025–2026 assessment results. The district ranks 155th of 238 Washington districts, placing it near the 35th percentile statewide. Average school enrollment is about 328 students, and the average student-teacher ratio is approximately 17.2:1, although Broadway Learning Center is substantially higher at 27:1.

Columbia Valley Garden Elementary School is the clear academic leader, ranking in the 58th state percentile and posting the district’s strongest overall results in English language arts, math, and science. Robert Gray Elementary and Columbia Heights Elementary follow closely, with particularly strong third- and fourth-grade performance. Mint Valley Elementary is a relative math strength, while Olympic Elementary School shows some improvement in fifth-grade results despite weaker earlier-grade performance. Families comparing schools should note that fourth-grade math is the district’s strongest grade-subject area, while fifth-grade math is the broadest academic concern.

Kessler Elementary School has made notable progress in its overall ranking and science results, but its English and math scores remain below district averages. Saint Helens Elementary currently needs the greatest academic support, with the lowest proficiency rates among the tested schools. Northlake Elementary School has a low student-teacher ratio but mixed assessment outcomes. Broadway Learning Center serves only prekindergarten and kindergarten, so it should be evaluated separately using early-learning measures rather than compared directly with the K–5 schools. Overall, math is the district’s relative strength, while English and science results are more inconsistent.
