Summary

Meadow Ridge Elementary School is a public school in Kent, Washington, serving 423 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade in the Kent School District, an area school serving a community with relatively high economic need.

Academic results are substantially below district and state averages. In 2025–26, 12.64% of students were proficient in English language arts, 15.22% in math, and 10% in science, compared with 42.84%, 34.16%, and 42.28%, respectively, across the district. Fifth grade was especially concerning: ELA proficiency was 5.17%, math was 8.33%, and science was 10%. The school ranked 1,096th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 4th percentile statewide. Results have remained very low in recent years, despite a small improvement from the 1st-percentile rankings in 2023–24 and 2024–25. The school’s approximately 73.05% free- or reduced-price lunch rate also shows that it serves a high-need population. Its student-teacher ratio rose from 13.5 in 2022–23 to 15.8 in 2024–25.

Nearby schools provide useful context. Scenic Hill Elementary School serves a very similar proportion of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch—73.8%—but had higher proficiency in ELA, math, and science. Pine Tree Elementary School also serves a similarly high-need population and outperformed Meadow Ridge in all three subjects. Stronger nearby examples include Martin Sortun Elementary School, with 50% ELA, 47.56% math, and 60% science proficiency, and Lea Hill Elementary School, with 61.22% ELA and 57.03% math proficiency. Overall, the broad and persistent gaps suggest that Meadow Ridge would need a comprehensive, multiyear focus on instructional consistency, intervention, attendance and mobility factors, staffing stability, and upper-grade support.
