Summary

Ruby Bridges Elementary is a well-regarded public elementary school serving approximately 500 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in Woodinville, WA, as part of the highly-ranked Northshore School District.

Academically, the school performs solidly above Washington state averages, with about 68% of students proficient in English, 65% in Math, and 72% in Science. However, within its own high-achieving district, it finds itself in a middle position. It outperforms nearby schools like Woodin Elementary and Crystal Springs Elementary, which have higher rates of economic need, but its scores are 12-21 points lower in core subjects compared to top-performing neighbors like Fernwood Elementary and Kokanee Elementary. Interestingly, Ruby Bridges operates with the highest per-student spending and one of the lowest student-teacher ratios in the local area.

The school shows particular strength in supporting English Language Learners, ranking in the 86th percentile statewide for effectiveness with that group. Analysis points to some variation in performance by grade level, with 3rd grade English and 5th grade Math showing lower proficiency, suggesting possible curriculum focus areas. While the school's statewide ranking has gradually declined from the 95th to the 83rd percentile over the past few years, it remains a strong school that effectively serves its community within a competitive educational landscape.
