Summary

Emerald Elementary School is a K–5 public school in Vancouver, Washington, serving 440 students at its northeast Vancouver location as part of the Evergreen School District (Clark). The school ranks 584th out of 1,138 Washington schools, placing it at the 49th percentile with a 2-star rating. Its ranking has improved considerably from the 25th percentile in 2022–2023 and has remained near the 49th percentile in each of the most recent three years.

Emerald is one of the stronger schools in its local comparison group, ranking fourth among the 11 nearby schools shown. It trails Illahee Elementary School, Endeavour Elementary School, and Harmony Elementary School, but ranks ahead of most others, including Burnt Bridge Creek Elementary School. In 2025–2026, Emerald exceeded district proficiency rates in all three tested subjects: English language arts was 45.68%, math was 46.91%, and science was 50.55%. Math is the clearest strength, standing 13.46 points above the district and slightly above the state average. Emerald’s math rate was third highest among the nearby schools listed, behind Illahee and Endeavour.

ELA remains a useful area for improvement because Emerald’s 45.68% proficiency rate is below the state’s 52.81%. Fourth-grade ELA was especially weak at 39.47%, while fifth grade reached 53.33%, nearly matching the state. Science is another relative strength, close to the state average and well above the district, although it has declined from 61.25% in 2023–2024. The school’s student-teacher ratio improved to 14.5, better than most nearby schools, and its math performance has risen steadily from 31.91% to 46.91% over four years. Parents may also want to ask about support for students receiving special education services and those from lower-income households, as these groups had lower effectiveness rankings than the school overall.
