Summary

Sunset View Elementary School is a public K-5 school serving 411 students in the Kennewick School District, with academic performance that has shown a declining trend over the past decade, now ranking in the 35th percentile statewide.

The school's current proficiency rates in English (48.4%) and Math (37.4%) are below the state average, though its math score is slightly above the district average. Notably, it serves a student population with higher economic need than several nearby schools, with over half of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this, the school spends more per student than some higher-performing neighbors like Amon Creek Elementary and Cottonwood Elementary, which achieve proficiency rates over 20 percentage points higher in core subjects. Performance varies significantly by grade, with math scores declining in upper grades while English scores improve.

Sunset View's performance has been volatile for some student groups, such as those in special education, though it has shown relative strength in serving students from low-income families compared to its overall ranking. The school's close proximity to several consistently high-performing schools in different districts, including the Richland School District, presents an opportunity to examine and adopt effective practices, particularly to address challenges in math and science instruction where the school struggles most.
