East Valley School District (Yakima)

The East Valley School District (Yakima) consists of five public schools serving grades PK-12 in the Yakima area, with a total enrollment around 3,400 students and an overall performance ranking in the middle of Washington state districts.

Among the three elementary schools, Moxee Elementary stands out as the district's top performer, with the highest proficiency rates in math and science, while Terrace Heights Elementary faces the most significant academic challenges, particularly in upper-grade math and science. East Valley Elementary falls between these two, with science proficiency stronger than its math and reading scores. The district's East Valley Central Middle School shows a notable drop in math proficiency compared to the elementary schools that feed into it, indicating a common transition challenge.

At the high school level, East Valley High School presents a striking contrast: it boasts an exceptionally high graduation rate well above the state average, yet fewer than a third of its students are proficient in math. This suggests the school has strong systems to support students through to graduation, though academic mastery in certain subjects remains an area for focus. Across all schools, reading performance tends to be stronger than math.
