Summary

Springbrook Elementary School is a PK–5 school in Kent, Washington, serving approximately 350 students in a relatively high-need area, with 68.29% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch and a 15.8:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25.

Springbrook is improving, although it remains below the statewide midpoint. For 2025–26, the school ranked 827th of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 27th percentile and earning a 1-star rating. That is a meaningful change from the 13th percentile two years earlier. The school’s results are below the overall Kent School District standing of the 41st percentile, but Springbrook compares favorably with several nearby schools. It ranked ahead of Park Orchard Elementary School, Panther Lake Elementary School, East Hill Elementary School, and Impact | Black River Elementary, while Sunrise Elementary School, Talbot Hill Elementary School, Glenridge Elementary, and Soos Creek Elementary School ranked higher.

Academically, math and science are Springbrook’s strongest areas. In 2025–26, 37.50% of students met standards in math and 45.00% in science, both above district averages. Science has shown especially strong growth, rising from 25.45% in 2022–23. English language arts was 33.33%, about 9.5 percentage points below the district, making it the clearest improvement priority. Fifth-grade math is another concern, with proficiency declining from 40.63% in third grade to 33.33% in fifth grade. Springbrook’s special education subgroup effectiveness ranked in the 70th percentile statewide, a notable strength, while outcomes for low-income students remained in the 28th percentile. Overall, the school shows encouraging momentum and performs better than several nearby schools facing similar challenges, but continued focus on ELA and upper-grade math would be important.

Springbrook has made significant changes over the past two years. Staff have high expectations for students in a safe and welcoming learning environment. Close Quote

This school sucks, They lack funds and leadership. Too much time and money being spent on getting non English speaking students up to grade. while the English speaking students are not receiving a well rounded education. Their failure to provide life sciences, social studies, and humanities makes them very low ranking to me. I feel this school puts too much emphasis on teaching to standardized test than to actually creating a fun positive learning environment that kids want to learn in. Not only that this school utilized harsh and unreasonable behavior management strategies. this is noted by incidents of children being handcuffed in elementary school. Close Quote
