Summary

Alpac Elementary School is a public PK-5 school serving 534 students in Pacific, WA, as part of the Auburn School District, and it stands out for its strong math and science instruction and effective support for students learning English.

Academically, Alpac's students perform better in math and science than both the district average and the state average, which is a key strength compared to many nearby schools like Pioneer Elementary School and Rainier View Elementary School. The school is particularly effective with English Language Learners and students from lower-income families, achieving better results than other schools in the area with similar levels of economic need, such as Washington Elementary School and Gildo Rey Elementary School. While reading and language arts scores are above the district average, they are an area for growth as they currently trail the state average.

The school shows efficient use of resources, spending less per student than some district schools while getting solid results. Parents may note that performance is strongest in 5th grade, while 4th grade scores indicate a focus area for the school's ongoing improvement efforts.
