Summary

East Valley High School is a public, four-year school for grades 9–12 in Spokane Valley, Washington, serving 912 students in a suburban community through the East Valley School District (Spokane). The school has a mixed profile: graduation and dropout outcomes have improved significantly, while academic proficiency remains uneven. For 2025–26, it ranked 257th of 396 Washington high schools, placing it in the 35th percentile with a two-star rating.

English language arts is East Valley’s strongest tested subject, with 50% of students proficient—above the district’s 43.66% but below the state’s 52.81%. However, ELA performance fell from 60.45% the previous year. Math is the clearest academic challenge: 30.43% of students were proficient, compared with 37.05% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Science proficiency was also below local and state averages at 36.55%. East Valley trails nearby comprehensive schools such as Ridgeline High School and Central Valley High School in all three subjects, but it outperformed Spokane Valley High School in the latest reported results.

Completion measures are a notable strength. East Valley’s 2024–25 graduation rate was 89.4%, up from 78.1% in 2020–21, while its dropout rate fell to 3.5% from 11.9%. About 59% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a higher share than at Central Valley and Ridgeline, so comparisons should account for differences in student needs. Subgroup effectiveness is uneven, with particularly low results for students receiving special education services and below-average results for low-income students and male students. Overall, East Valley appears more successful at helping students persist and graduate than at producing strong proficiency in math and science; sustaining its completion gains while strengthening instruction should be the central priority.
