Horace Mann ranks 22nd of 1,138 Washington elementary schools for 2025–26, placing it in the 98th percentile and earning a five-star rating. The district ranks fourth of 238 statewide districts.

Academically, Horace Mann is an especially strong all-around school. In 2025–26, 92.45% of students were proficient in English language arts, 88.89% in math, and 84.16% in science. It led the nearby listed district schools in both ELA and math, exceeding Norman Rockwell Elementary by 12.35 percentage points in ELA and Rose Hill Elementary by 4.61 points in math. Its math performance improved by 10.22 points since 2022–23, while ELA rose by 5.78 points. Third-grade math was particularly strong at 92.31%, and fifth-grade ELA reached 86.87%. Science was excellent, though slightly behind Mark Twain Elementary and Rose Hill Elementary.

Nearby schools are also strong, making Horace Mann’s results notable within a competitive local area: Rose Hill Elementary, Norman Rockwell Elementary, and Benjamin Rush Elementary all rank highly statewide, but Horace Mann ranks ahead of each. Its relatively low free- or reduced-price lunch rate of 5.94% provides important context when comparing it with schools serving greater economic need. Some grade-level results are suppressed, so they should not be treated as zero. Overall, the school combines consistently top-tier rankings, strong improvement, and especially impressive ELA and math results.
