Summary

Edwin Markham Elementary is a small PK–5 public school in Pasco, serving 227 students in the Pasco area and offering notably strong academic results compared with nearby schools and the broader Pasco School District.

The school ranks 179th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 84th percentile statewide, while the district ranks in the 16th percentile. In 2025–2026, 66.67% of students were proficient in English language arts and 64.49% in math, compared with 35.12% and 25.01%, respectively, across the district. Edwin Markham also exceeded statewide averages in both subjects. Its results led nearby Pasco schools, including Columbia River Elementary and Rosalind Franklin STEM Elementary, by substantial margins. It also outperformed nearby Jefferson Elementary in both ELA and math, despite Jefferson being in the higher-ranked Richland School District.

Performance is strong across the tested grades: reported math proficiency ranged from 62.07% to 65.79% in grades 3–5, while fourth- and fifth-grade ELA results were 69.23% and 65.52%. Math improved sharply from 46.60% in 2024–2025 to 64.49% in the latest year. Subgroup effectiveness rankings were also high, including the 83rd percentile for English learners and the 96th percentile for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. The school enrolls fewer students than comparison schools such as Three Rivers Elementary and has a relatively favorable 14.2 student-teacher ratio. The latest science result and third-grade ELA result were suppressed, so those outcomes are unknown rather than negative.
