Summary

Acme Elementary is a small public elementary school (grades K-6) serving 168 students in the Mount Baker School District in Acme, WA, an area where the district itself ranks in the lower quarter statewide.

Academically, the school performs below state averages, ranking in the 29th percentile of Washington elementary schools with a 1-star rating for the 2024-2025 year. Its proficiency rates in English, math, and science are below both the state and district averages, and it is outperformed by its district peer, Harmony Elementary. Performance has been volatile year-to-year, and while third graders show strength in math, scores drop significantly by sixth grade. The school spends over $20,700 per student, which is higher than several nearby, higher-performing schools like Happy Valley Elementary and Silver Beach Elementary in the higher-ranked Bellingham School District.

Notable findings include a significant and unusual gender performance gap in the most recent year, with male students ranking much higher than female students. A bright spot is the school's relatively strong performance with economically disadvantaged students, ranking at the 64th percentile for that subgroup, which suggests effective support systems are in place. Compared to other schools with similar levels of student economic need, such as Samish Elementary, Acme's overall results indicate there is room for improvement in translating its strengths to benefit all students consistently.
