Summary

Carbonado Historical School 19 is a highly-rated, small K-8 public school serving 176 students in the top-ranked Carbonado School District, offering a more personalized education with smaller class sizes than many surrounding schools.

The school consistently performs well above state averages, with 66% of students proficient in English, 64% in math, and an impressive 70% in science. This strong performance is notable because the school serves a community with a moderate level of economic need, outperforming nearby schools like Orting Elementary School which has similar demographics but significantly lower test scores. A key factor is the district's higher investment per student, which supports a lower student-teacher ratio and likely contributes to these excellent outcomes.

While schools such as Tehaleh Heights Elementary School and Mountain Meadow Elementary have higher overall test scores, they serve wealthier communities. Carbonado's success demonstrates how a well-funded, small-school environment can achieve great results. The main area for improvement is a dip in 7th-grade English scores, which the school can address to strengthen its already solid K-8 program.
