Summary

Armin Jahr Elementary is a K–5 public school serving approximately 495 students in Bremerton, Washington, within the Bremerton School District on the Kitsap Peninsula. The school serves a relatively high-need community: 65.45% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, while the student-teacher ratio was 14.6:1. Its 2025–26 statewide ranking was 1,045th out of 1,138 schools, placing it in the 8th percentile and earning zero stars.

Academic results are below both district and state averages and have declined across all tested subjects since 2022–23. In 2025–26, 23.35% of students met standards in English language arts, 20.78% in math, and 22.89% in science. Fifth grade is a particular concern: proficiency was 20.48% in ELA, 8.43% in math, and 22.89% in science. Nearby View Ridge Elementary Arts Academy, only about 0.39 miles away, performed better in every subject, while Kitsap Lake Elementary posted much stronger results, including 52.17% math and 68.89% science proficiency. These comparisons are not exact because schools differ in enrollment, programs, and student needs, but they show substantial variation among nearby schools.

Economic circumstances provide important context, but they do not fully account for the differences: West Hills S.T.E.M. Academy and Naval Avenue Elementary School serve similarly high-need populations and achieved stronger results in several subjects. Armin Jahr’s very low subgroup effectiveness rankings also point to a broad schoolwide challenge affecting multiple student groups. Key areas for review include foundational reading and math, fifth-grade readiness, science instruction, attendance, intervention access, and support for economically disadvantaged and multilingual learners.
