Summary

Amistad Elementary School is a public school in Kennewick, Washington, serving 878 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade as part of the Kennewick School District. It is much larger than nearby elementary schools, which generally enroll about 347 to 468 students, and has a higher student-teacher ratio of 18.7. The school also serves a community with substantial economic need: 89.18% of students qualified for free or reduced-price meals in 2024–2025. Per-student spending was $19,006 in 2023–2024.

Academic results remain the school’s main concern. In 2025–2026, 13.54% of students were proficient in English Language Arts, 22.25% in math, and 27.93% in science. These results were below the Kennewick School District and Washington averages, and Amistad had the lowest ELA and science rates among the nearby Kennewick schools reviewed. For comparison, Hawthorne Elementary School posted 47.98% ELA proficiency, while Southgate Elementary School reached 53.88% in math. Fourth grade was especially weak, with 9.82% proficiency in ELA and 16.22% in math.

There are some encouraging signs. Math proficiency increased by 8.81 percentage points and science by 13.38 points from the prior year, while the school’s statewide ranking improved to the 6th percentile from the 0th percentile in 2024–2025. English Language Learners were the school’s strongest reported subgroup, ranking at the 15th statewide percentile, although this remains a low position overall. Compared with nearby schools such as Eastgate Elementary School, Westgate Elementary School, and Canyon View Elementary School, Amistad has lower overall results and more students per teacher. Future results will show whether the recent math and science gains develop into sustained improvement.
