Summary:
Pomeroy School District is a small Washington district serving about 343 students across two schools, from prekindergarten through grade 12, in the Pomeroy area. The district ranks 55th of 238 statewide districts, placing it in the 77th percentile and earning a four-star rating. Pomeroy Elementary School serves PK–6, while Pomeroy Junior Senior High School serves grades 7–12. Because the schools are small, individual student groups can noticeably affect yearly percentages.
Pomeroy Elementary School is the stronger overall academic performer. In 2025–26, it exceeded state results in English language arts, math, and science, with especially notable math performance: 63.72% of students were proficient, more than 20 percentage points above the state. Its overall ranking was in the 73rd percentile, although its ranking and test scores declined somewhat from the previous year. The elementary school also reports a student-teacher ratio of 18.6 to 1 and free/reduced-price lunch participation of about 46%, providing useful context about the students it serves. Suppressed grade-level results should be treated as unknown rather than as low scores.
Pomeroy Junior Senior High School currently ranks lower, in the 58th percentile, but it has shown the district’s clearest improvement. Its ranking rose from the 30th percentile in 2023–24 to the 58th percentile in 2025–26, and its ELA, math, and science results all improved in the latest year. Grade 8 is a particular strength, especially in science and math. Parents may want to ask about support for grade 7 ELA, where results were well below the state, and grade 11 science, which was also a weaker area. The school has a lower student-teacher ratio of 11.5 to 1 and higher per-student spending, while its reported graduation rate was 83%.
