Summary

Bridgeport Elementary serves 347 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in Bridgeport, a small Washington community, and is part of the Bridgeport School District. The school serves a community with substantial economic need: 89.91% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Its student-teacher ratio was 16.5, higher than at each nearby comparison school.

Academically, Bridgeport remains among the lowest-ranked elementary schools in Washington. It ranked 1,106th of 1,138 schools, in the 3rd percentile, for 2025–2026, while the Bridgeport School District ranked in the 5th percentile statewide. Only 9.26% of students met standards in English language arts and 8.49% met standards in math, compared with 52.81% and 43.11% statewide. Results were also low across both tested grades: third- and fourth-grade ELA proficiency was 10.71% and 7.69%, while math proficiency was 9.26% and 7.69%. These results continue a multi-year pattern of weak performance rather than representing a single unusual year.

Bridgeport trails nearby schools in both latest ELA and math results. Brewster Elementary School, about 8 miles away, had similar economic need but higher proficiency—26.84% in ELA and 23.68% in math—and a lower student-teacher ratio of 13.2. Pateros Elementary, about 11 miles away, reported 42.86% ELA and 35.48% math proficiency, while Morgen Owings Elementary School, about 19 miles away, reported 33.78% and 26.67%. Bridgeport spent $19,889 per student in 2023–2024, more than Brewster and Morgen Owings, but the available data do not show corresponding academic improvement. Overall, the results suggest a broad school- and district-level improvement challenge involving literacy, math, staffing, and student supports.
