Summary

Central Valley Virtual Learning is a K-8 online public school serving 166 students within the Central Valley School District in Spokane Valley, WA, offering a smaller, more personalized class size than many area schools.

This school stands out for its exceptional strength in science, where over 72% of students are proficient, significantly outperforming both the district average and nearby schools like Progress Elementary (28%) and Riverbend Elementary (49.47%). Its performance in English Language Arts is also solid, slightly above average. However, math is an area for growth, with proficiency lagging behind the district. The virtual model shows interesting patterns, with performance varying considerably by grade; for example, 8th graders perform quite strongly, suggesting the format can be very effective for some students in the middle school years.

Compared to other schools, Central Valley Virtual Learning operates with notably lower per-student spending while achieving an average state ranking, indicating efficient use of resources. It serves as a distinctive alternative, outperforming some traditional schools like Otis Orchards School and Adams Elementary, though other innovative models like the Continuous Curriculum School show higher overall proficiency. The school's academic ranking and state rating have been steadily improving.
