Summary

Cosmopolis Elementary School is a small public school in the coastal community of Cosmopolis, Washington, serving 175 students in grades K–6 through the Cosmopolis School District. The school ranks in approximately the 30th statewide percentile and has two stars, an improvement from the 24th percentile the previous year but well below its 60th-percentile standing in 2020–2021. About 57.14% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, indicating a relatively high level of economic need.

Academically, Cosmopolis performs below Washington averages overall. In 2025–2026, 41.38% of students were proficient in English language arts, 26.44% in math, and 42.86% in science, compared with statewide rates of 52.81%, 43.11%, and 50.95%. Math is the clearest priority, particularly in grades 3–5, where math proficiency ranged from 18.18% to 26.32%. Sixth grade stands out as a strength: 52% were proficient in ELA and 40% in math, both slightly above the state’s sixth-grade results. The school’s low-SES subgroup ranked in the 64th percentile, suggesting the school may be especially effective in supporting economically disadvantaged students, although subgroup results can vary with small class sizes.

Locally, Cosmopolis is neither the strongest nor the weakest option. Simpson Avenue Elementary, which also serves grades 3–6, was much stronger, with 60.15% ELA and 59.29% math proficiency, while Cosmopolis exceeded Central Elementary School and Lincoln Elementary in Hoquiam across all three tested subjects. It also generally outperformed Robert Gray Elementary and Stevens Elementary School, but trailed McDermoth Elementary in several areas. Parents may want to focus especially on grades 3–5 math while asking how the school’s stronger sixth-grade and low-SES results can be extended to more students.
