Summary

Reeves Middle School in Olympia, Washington, serves 394 students in grades 6–8 and is part of the highly regarded Olympia School District. It is a relatively small middle school compared with many nearby campuses and is currently rated four stars, ranking 145th of 514 Washington schools, in the 72nd percentile. Reeves has remained consistently above the state average, although its recent standing is below its mid-to-late-2010s levels.

Academically, Reeves is stronger than Washington overall in English language arts, math, and science: 56.35% of students are proficient in ELA, 45.89% in math, and 57.80% in science. However, it trails the district average in all three subjects. Math is the clearest area to watch. Sixth-grade math proficiency is 50.71%, above both the district and state rates, but it falls to 46.30% in seventh grade and 39.05% in eighth grade. ELA results are steadier across grades, while science is a statewide strength but remains behind local peers. Within the district, Washington Middle School and Jefferson Middle School perform substantially better, while Thurgood Marshall Middle School is a close overall comparison.

Compared with many nearby schools outside Olympia, Reeves is competitive or stronger, including George Bush Middle School, Tumwater Middle School, and several North Thurston-area schools. Its student-teacher ratio of 18.1 is reasonable for the area, and its reported effectiveness for special education students is a notable strength, ranking in the 78th percentile statewide. Recent results are mixed: ELA declined, math was nearly flat, and science remains well above its level three years earlier. Overall, Reeves offers a solid above-average option, with the greatest opportunities in later-grade math, science compared with Olympia peers, and making outcomes more consistent across student groups.

Reeves Middle School is an incredible school. The entire staff truly cares about students and do whatever it takes to promote student growth. The teachers are innovative and provide student centered instruction. Classrooms are differentiated for the needs of each student and infused with technology. Administration is very strong and communicates very effectively of any upcoming events, issues or changes. Administration always has time for parents and students. Teachers, classified staff and administration are always visible to students at school and at school events. Close Quote

Reeves is an outstanding school based on trends over the past 4 years that reflect rising test scores, a caring community climate, and a collaborate effort between administration & teachers to meet the needs of all kids. This school is a rising star that has overcome a history of negative reviews due to a dedicated staff and the building administration team. My child has blossomed in this school and I can't thank the staff enough for their dedication. Close Quote
