Summary:
Lyle School District has one middle school, Lyle Middle School, serving grades 6–8 in the small community of Lyle, Washington. The school enrolls 57 students, so it provides a close-to-home middle-school option but has no other district middle school for comparison.
Lyle Middle School’s 2025–2026 results show English Language Arts as its strongest subject, with 22.92% of students proficient, followed by science at 17.65% and math at 14.58%. Science was slightly higher than the district middle-school rate of 16.22%, but the school’s results were below Washington averages in every subject: 52.81% in ELA, 43.11% in math, and 50.95% in science. Reported sixth- and seventh-grade results were also below state averages, while eighth-grade ELA and math results were suppressed and therefore cannot be evaluated. The school’s 13.9-to-1 student-teacher ratio may support more individual attention, although the ratio does not by itself measure class size or instructional quality.
Recent trends point to math and science as the most important areas for improvement. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA increased slightly from 21.82% to 22.92%, while math fell from 25.93% to 14.58% and science declined from 31.58% to 17.65%. The school’s ranking also dropped from the 31st percentile in earlier listed years to the 10th percentile most recently. With 57 students, yearly percentages can change noticeably when only a few students’ results differ, so families should view one-year results cautiously. The school reported 57.89% free- or reduced-price lunch participation and $26,460 in per-student spending; no comparison figures were provided for those measures.
