Summary

Artz Fox Elementary is a K–6 school in Mabton serving 375 students in the Mabton School District, a rural area where many families face economic challenges. In 2024–25, 90.4% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 17.7, higher than most nearby comparison schools, and spending was relatively high at $21,559 per student in 2023–24. Because Artz Fox includes sixth grade while many nearby schools serve only K–5, comparisons are helpful but not perfectly equivalent.

Academic results remain below state averages, especially in math. In 2025–26, 25.93% of students were proficient in English language arts and 14.38% in math, compared with 52.81% and 43.11% statewide. Math was the school’s clearest challenge: reported proficiency was below 22% in grades 3, 4, and 6, while fifth-grade math results were suppressed and cannot be interpreted. ELA improved from 19.15% in 2024–25 to 25.93% in 2025–26, but the school’s overall ranking was still at the 11th percentile statewide. Science results for the school were suppressed, so no conclusion can be drawn about science performance.

Artz Fox is closer to some nearby schools in ELA than in math, but it trails stronger local benchmarks by a wide margin. Thompson Elementary, which also serves a high-need community, reported 45.04% ELA and 50.62% math proficiency; Prosser Heights Elementary and Mcclure Elementary also posted substantially stronger math results. One notable bright spot is Artz Fox’s English learner effectiveness ranking, at the 46th percentile statewide, far above its overall 11th-percentile standing. For families, the main questions are how the school is strengthening math instruction across grades 3–6 and whether recent ELA gains can continue.
