Summary

Fort Colville Elementary is a public school in Colville, Washington, serving 355 students in grades 3–5 within the Colville School District. The school serves a relatively high-need population, with 69.86% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025. Its student-teacher ratio was 15.3 to 1, an improvement from 16.8 to 1 the year before. Statewide, the school ranked 495th of 1,138 schools, placing it at the 57th percentile and earning three stars.

Academically, Fort Colville Elementary has a balanced profile and generally compares favorably with nearby schools. In 2025–2026, 50.57% of students were proficient in English language arts, 44.79% in math, and 54.62% in science. Math was 6.65 percentage points above the district rate and 1.68 points above the state, while science was 3.67 points above the state. The school outperformed Evergreen School, Gess Elementary, Summit Valley School, and Kettle Falls Elementary School in several subjects. Onion Creek Elementary had stronger ELA results, but Fort Colville led it in math by 18.32 points.

Performance is uneven by grade. Fourth grade is the strongest, exceeding the state in both ELA and math, while third-grade math is the clearest concern: 40.18% proficiency compared with 53.20% statewide. Fifth-grade math was slightly below the state. Results in ELA and math declined from the strong 2024–2025 year, so those trends merit monitoring. The school’s low-socioeconomic-status subgroup ranked at the 70th percentile, a notable strength given the level of economic need. Special education effectiveness was weaker, ranking at the 24th percentile. Because Hofstetter Elementary serves grades K–2 nearby, families may also want to ask how the two schools coordinate the transition into third grade, particularly in math.
