Summary

Jing Mei Elementary School is a top-ranked, Pre-K through 5th grade public school serving 577 students within the highly-regarded Bellevue School District in Washington state.

Academically, Jing Mei is a standout performer, particularly in mathematics where over 93% of students are proficient, a rate that significantly outpaces both the district and state. This strength is consistent across grade levels, indicating a very effective math program. While schools like Medina Elementary School and Cherry Crest Elementary School rank similarly high, Jing Mei differentiates itself with exceptional support for specific student groups, ranking among the very best in the state for students from low-income backgrounds and English Language Learners.

Jing Mei achieves these excellent results with notable consistency and efficiency. It has maintained a steady position among the top 6% of all Washington elementary schools for seven consecutive years, demonstrating stable leadership and teaching. Furthermore, it operates with a lower per-student cost than several nearby schools with similar or lower academic outcomes, such as Woodridge Elementary. This contrasts sharply with other schools in the same district, like Stevenson Elementary and Lake Hills Elementary, which have much higher per-student spending but significantly lower proficiency scores, highlighting Jing Mei's effective use of resources.
