Summary

Halilts Elementary School is a public school in Bainbridge Island, Washington, serving 353 students in prekindergarten through 4th grade. It is part of the highly rated Bainbridge Island School District, a small community district ranked second among Washington’s 238 districts. Halilts has maintained a five-star rating and ranked 42nd out of 1,138 Washington schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 96th percentile statewide.

Academic results are a major strength. In 2025–2026, 79.72% of students were proficient in English language arts and 79.02% in math—well above Washington averages of 52.81% and 43.11%, respectively. Math was slightly higher than the district rate, while ELA was 6.70 points below the district’s unusually strong 86.42%. Among nearby schools, Halilts had the second-highest reported math result, behind Capt Johnston Blakely Elementary School at 90.26%. Its ELA result trailed Odyssey Multiage Program at 88.99%, but exceeded results at Adams Elementary School, Ordway Elementary, and most other listed comparison schools.

Performance has stayed consistently high: over the last four reported years, ELA ranged from 75.18% to 82.84%, while math ranged from 75.18% to 83.58%. The clearest area to watch is fourth-grade math, where proficiency was 74.65%, compared with 83.33% in third grade and 81.22% districtwide. Halilts also offers a favorable 14.5:1 student-teacher ratio and reported $22,400 in per-student spending, higher than nearby traditional district schools. Overall, it combines strong statewide achievement, stable results, and comparatively robust resources, with the main opportunities being to narrow the district-level ELA gap and strengthen fourth-grade math.
