Summary

East Valley Elementary is a public elementary school serving about 560 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in the East Valley School District (Yakima), a mid-ranked district in Washington state.

Academically, the school performs near the state average overall, with particular strengths in science and math where it often exceeds state benchmarks. The school shows notable effectiveness in supporting English Language Learners and students from lower-income families. However, performance in English Language Arts is slightly below average, and support for students in special education has declined in recent years. An interesting trend is that reading scores improve significantly from 3rd to 5th grade, showing strong student growth, though math scores dip in 5th grade, which is a pattern seen across the district.

Compared to nearby schools, East Valley Elementary achieves these results with lower per-student spending and larger class sizes than most peers. It academically outperforms another school in its own district, Terrace Heights Elementary, but lags behind Moxee Elementary. It notably outperforms schools in the neighboring Yakima School District, such as Barge-Lincoln Elementary School and Mckinley Elementary School, which spend more per student but have much lower statewide rankings.
