Summary

Hockinson Heights Elementary School is a large, well-regarded K-5 school serving 912 students in Brush Prairie, WA, and is a consistent academic standout within its highly-ranked Hockinson School District.

The school consistently outperforms the Washington state average in math, English, and science, a notable achievement especially when compared to several nearby schools in other districts. For instance, while Hockinson Heights posts strong proficiency rates, schools like Silver Star Elementary School and others in the Evergreen School District (Clark) significantly trail state averages. This strong performance is achieved even though Hockinson Heights spends less per student and has a slightly higher student-teacher ratio than many surrounding schools, suggesting efficient use of resources within a supportive district framework.

While the school's overall performance is stable and strong, there are areas for attention, such as variable outcomes for some student subgroups and a noted challenge in serving special education students effectively. Compared to its closest neighbor, Tukes Valley Primary, or a school with similar demographics like York Elementary School, Hockinson Heights maintains a significant academic advantage. For families, the school represents a high-performing option that delivers above-average results within its community.
