Summary

Lind Elementary School is a small, rural public school serving about 82 students in grades PK-5 within the Lind School District.

The school has shown significant improvement recently, moving its statewide ranking from the 17th percentile to the 45th percentile in the latest year, and it consistently outperforms other schools in its own district in English, math, and science. Compared to nearby schools, Lind Elementary performs better than Warden Elementary but lags behind Ritzville Grade School. A notable strength is its 3rd grade English scores, which exceed the state average, though performance tends to drop in the 4th and 5th grades.

Lind Elementary operates with a very low student-teacher ratio of 10-to-1, offering more individualized attention than neighboring schools, and its per-student spending is exceptionally high. Despite this level of investment, academic results are moderate compared to schools like Ritzville, which spends far less per student. The school serves a community with economic challenges, though the rate of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch has been decreasing.
