Summary

Trent School in Spokane Valley serves 511 students in prekindergarten through grade 6 and is part of the high-need East Valley School District (Spokane). About 84.93% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, although that share has declined from 91.94% in 2022–2023. The school had a 17:1 student-teacher ratio and reported $20,696 in spending per student, more than each nearby comparison school except Orchard Center Elementary. Despite these resources, Trent ranks in the 13th statewide percentile, or 986th of 1,138 Washington elementary schools.

Current academic results are the school’s clearest concern. In 2025–2026, 28.18% of students were proficient in English language arts, 21.10% in math, and 24.44% in science. Those rates were below both district and state results in every subject, with science showing the largest gap. Fifth-grade math is especially urgent: only 8.89% of students met standards, compared with 32.57% in the district and 43.32% statewide. Grades 3–5 ELA results were also only about 22%–24% proficient, while sixth-grade ELA was a relative bright spot at 43.86%. Recent improvement has been inconsistent; the school’s ranking rose from the 2nd percentile in 2020–2021 but has remained near the low teens and recently slipped from the 15th percentile.

Nearby comparisons put Trent’s results in perspective. Trentwood School, also in East Valley and serving prekindergarten through grade 6, ranks in the 39th percentile and exceeds Trent in ELA, math, and science; its science proficiency is 50.00% versus Trent’s 24.44%. Trent also ranks below schools such as Sunrise Elementary, Summit School, and Adams Elementary. These schools generally serve fewer economically disadvantaged students, so comparisons require context, but the broad gaps suggest a need for sustained support in foundational literacy, math, science, attendance, and student interventions.
