Summary

Lake Roosevelt Elementary is a public elementary school serving about 350 students from Pre-K through 6th grade in the rural Grand Coulee Dam School District in Coulee Dam, WA.

The school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of Washington elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English, Math, and Science well below state averages. This trend is part of a broader pattern within its district, which also ranks very low statewide. While many students come from low-income households, the rate has recently improved. Compared to nearby schools like Wilbur Elementary School and Almira Elementary School, Lake Roosevelt has a larger student body, a higher student-to-teacher ratio, and lower per-student spending, which correlates with its weaker academic performance.

Despite these challenges, there are some positive signs and areas of relative strength. Per-student funding and the student-teacher ratio have improved in recent years. The school's science scores are stronger than its English and Math results, and its 5th graders perform notably better in English. Performance varies considerably between different grades and student groups, with some showing dramatic swings from year to year, indicating that targeted support can make a difference. The experiences of higher-performing neighboring schools in similar rural settings may offer valuable lessons for improvement.
