Summary

Broadway Elementary is a PK–5 school in Spokane Valley serving 282 students in the Central Valley School District, an area with several nearby elementary schools and convenient comparisons across Central Valley, East Valley, and West Valley. The school ranks in the 60th percentile statewide, or 450th of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, an improvement from the 34th percentile the year before. Its latest results are above Washington averages: 54.3% of students are proficient in English language arts, 50.99% in math, and 51.02% in science. The district itself is relatively strong statewide, ranking in the 81st percentile.

The most encouraging news is Broadway’s recent academic growth. From the prior year, proficiency increased by about 11 percentage points in both English language arts and math and by more than 14 points in science. Broadway also outperforms nearby Opportunity Elementary in all three subjects, despite serving similarly high proportions of students eligible for free or reduced-price meals. Its low-income student subgroup ranks in the 78th percentile statewide, suggesting particularly strong relative results for economically disadvantaged students. The school’s 13.3-to-1 student-teacher ratio is favorable compared with several nearby schools, while spending of $16,999 per student is moderate among local comparison schools.

Performance is uneven by grade, making fifth grade the clearest priority. Fourth grade is a strength, with 68.29% proficiency in English language arts and 60.98% in math—both above district averages—but fifth-grade results fall to 44% in English language arts, 34% in math, and 51.02% in science. Broadway remains behind nearby leaders such as Sunrise Elementary, Summit School, and McDonald Elementary School, but it is clearly improving. The main question for families is whether this strong rebound can become consistent, especially in fifth grade and science.

Open Quote Horrible school the principal will treat you as though you are incompetent and they do not discuss concerns regarding children they just call cps. Be warned this has been a problem for years at this school with no consequence to the horrible staff at this school. Close Quote
