Summary

Edison Elementary School is a public school in Kennewick, Washington, serving 378 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade as part of the Kennewick School District. The school is relatively small compared with nearby elementary schools and serves a high-need community, with 74.87% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Edison’s 2025–2026 statewide ranking was at the 11th percentile, a meaningful improvement from the 1st–2nd percentile range in earlier years, although it remains near the bottom statewide and below most nearby schools.

Current academic results show that 27.84% of students were proficient in English language arts, 23.71% in math, and 17.39% in science. Each result was below district and state averages, with science the clearest area of concern. Edison also had the lowest science performance among the nearby schools compared, including Ridge View Elementary School, Vista Elementary School, and Southgate Elementary School. Fourth grade was the school’s strongest current grade in both ELA and math, while fifth-grade math was especially weak, with 14.71% proficiency. This suggests that fifth-grade instruction, math intervention, and science support deserve particular attention.

There are also encouraging signs. ELA proficiency rose from 14.12% in 2023–2024 to 27.84% in 2025–2026, while math increased from 12.35% to 23.71%. Edison reported a student-teacher ratio of 12.1, the lowest among the comparison schools, and per-student spending of $20,920, the highest in that group. Higher-performing schools serving different but sometimes similarly high-need populations—such as Westgate Elementary School and Hawthorne Elementary School—may offer useful examples of instructional and support practices. Overall, Edison appears to be improving from a very low baseline, but it needs sustained progress, especially in fifth-grade math and science.
