Summary

Skyline Elementary is a K–5 school in Spokane, Washington, serving 412 students in the Mead School District in a residential area with several nearby elementary schools. It ranks 149th out of 1,138 Washington schools, placing it in the 87th percentile, and most recently received a four-star rating. Skyline’s reported free- and reduced-price lunch rate is 16.99%, lower than that of every nearby comparison school, while its student-teacher ratio is 19.2.

Academically, Skyline is the strongest overall performer among the nearby Mead schools. In 2025–2026, 66.2% of students were proficient in English language arts, 75.93% in math, and 66.25% in science. Skyline led Prairie View Elementary, Brentwood Elementary School, Evergreen Elementary School, and Shiloh Hills Elementary in all three subjects. Math is the clearest strength: Skyline’s 75.93% proficiency rate was 26.28 percentage points above the district and 32.82 points above the state. Its results also exceeded nearby Balboa Elementary and Westview Elementary in math and English language arts.

Families should also note some recent softening. Skyline’s statewide rank fell from 107th in 2024–2025, while English language arts declined from 71.9% to 66.2% and science from 72.88% to 66.25%. The low-income student subgroup’s statewide effectiveness ranking also dropped from the 94th to the 54th percentile. Skyline does not lead every subject locally: Indian Trail Elementary and Balboa posted higher science results. Still, Skyline combines strong achievement with the lowest reported spending per student among the comparison schools, at $14,967, and remains a high-performing option relative to nearby schools.
