Summary

Edwin Markham Elementary is a public Pre-K through 5th grade school serving 227 students in Pasco, WA, and stands out as a consistently strong performer within its broader Pasco School District.

Academically, Edwin Markham significantly outperforms other elementary schools in its own district, such as Three Rivers Elementary and Barbara McClintock STEM Elementary, with proficiency rates in English, math, and science that are often 20-30 points higher. The school has also shown remarkable effectiveness in supporting students from low-income families, ranking in the state's top tier for this subgroup in recent years. With a smaller student body and more funding per student than many neighboring schools, Markham benefits from a favorable student-teacher ratio that likely supports its academic success.

While the school's performance is very strong compared to local peers, it's important to note that results for specific student groups can vary from year to year. The school's science scores are a particular area of strength. Overall, Edwin Markham demonstrates that high achievement is possible within its district, serving as a notable example of a school that delivers quality education to its community.
