Summary

Maltby Elementary is a K–5 school serving 334 students in the suburban Snohomish area as part of the Monroe School District. The district ranks 73rd of 238 Washington districts, while Maltby ranks 481st of 1,138 elementary schools, placing it in the 58th percentile statewide and earning three stars. Maltby performs above Washington averages in all three reported subjects: 60.12% of students are proficient in English language arts, 48.55% in math, and 63.79% in science. Science is the clearest strength, exceeding the state rate by nearly 13 percentage points and remaining consistently strong over the past four years.

The latest results also show areas parents may want to monitor. Compared with 2024–25, proficiency declined 7.47 points in ELA, 9.49 points in math, and 4.39 points in science. Fifth-grade math is the biggest concern, with 36.21% of students proficient, compared with 47.34% in the district and 43.32% statewide. Maltby’s special education subgroup ranking also fell from the 60th percentile in 2023–24 to the 25th percentile in 2025–26. On the positive side, the school has a relatively low 14.5 student-teacher ratio and spent $22,251 per student in 2023–24. Its 25.75% free/reduced-price lunch rate is higher than that of most nearby schools, providing important context when making local comparisons.

Locally, Maltby is most comparable to Woodin Elementary and Cathcart Elementary, rather than the highest-performing schools in the Northshore School District. Maltby’s ELA result is nearly identical to Cathcart’s and is higher than Woodin’s, while its science result exceeds Woodin’s but trails Cathcart’s. By contrast, schools such as Fernwood Elementary, Canyon Creek Elementary, and Tambark Creek Elementary School rank in the 97th–99th percentiles. Overall, Maltby is above average statewide, with resilient science performance, but its recent math decline and special education results deserve close attention.
