Summary

Eatonville Middle School is a smaller school in the Eatonville area, serving approximately 425 students in grades 6–8 through the Eatonville School District. It ranks 284th among 514 Washington middle schools, placing it in the 45th percentile with a 2-star rating. The school has made notable progress after reaching the 20th percentile in 2023–24: its ranking rose to the 28th percentile the following year and then to 45th percentile most recently. This upward movement is encouraging, although the school remains below the statewide average overall.

Current proficiency rates are 45.15% in English Language Arts, 31.97% in math, and 43.61% in science, compared with 52.81%, 43.11%, and 50.95% statewide. Science has shown the strongest recent improvement, rising from 30.00% two years earlier. Grade-level results are uneven: sixth- and seventh-grade ELA performance is close to the state, while eighth-grade ELA is about 17 percentage points below the state. Math trails the state in every grade, with the largest gap in eighth grade. Locally, Yelm Middle School, Doris Stahl Junior High, Glacier View Junior High, and Cougar Mountain Middle School post stronger overall results. Eatonville is broadly comparable with Orting Middle School and Bethel Middle School, and performs above Cedarcrest Middle School in all three subjects.

The school has some structural advantages: its 19.2:1 student-teacher ratio is lower than those of nearby traditional middle schools, and its per-student spending is relatively high. Its Hispanic-student effectiveness ranking is a notable strength at the 77th percentile, while other subgroup results are less consistent. Overall, the data points to a school recovering meaningfully rather than one that is uniformly weak. The clearest priorities are sustaining recent gains, improving eighth-grade ELA and math, strengthening math across all grades, and identifying practices that can support students whose subgroup results remain lower.
