Summary

Halilts Elementary School is a highly-rated public elementary school (PK-4) serving 353 students on Bainbridge Island, Washington, a community known for its exceptional Bainbridge Island School District which ranks in the 99th percentile statewide.

Academically, Halilts is a strong performer where about 80% of students are proficient in English and 76% in math, scores that are well above the Washington state average. It ranks 67th out of over 1,100 elementary schools. However, within its own top-tier district, there is notable variation. For example, Capt Johnston Blakely Elementary School ranks 9th statewide with higher test scores, while Ordway Elementary performs comparably in math. This shows that even in an elite district, individual school results can differ.

An interesting finding is that Halilts spends more per student ($22,400) than other elementary schools in the district, yet does not have the highest test scores, suggesting factors beyond funding influence performance. The school also shows some year-to-year variability in its special education results. Compared to schools in neighboring districts like North Kitsap or Central Kitsap, all Bainbridge Island schools, including Halilts, perform at a significantly higher level.
