Summary

Maltby Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 334 students in the Monroe School District in Snohomish, WA, and it stands out as a consistently high-performing school that has been steadily improving within its mid-tier district.

Academically, Maltby significantly outperforms both its district and state averages, especially in math and science, and it shows remarkable success in supporting specific student groups, such as those from low-income households. The school invests more per student than many nearby schools, which supports a lower student-teacher ratio for more personalized attention. While surrounded by elite schools like Tambark Creek Elementary School and Canyon Creek Elementary from higher-ranked districts, Maltby holds its own with strong overall results while serving a more economically diverse population.

Compared to its closest neighbor, Cathcart Elementary in the Snohomish School District, Maltby performs better across core subjects despite similar demographics. The school's trajectory is positive, though it faces ongoing challenges in serving its special education students effectively and in addressing a performance gap between male and female students.
