Summary

Virgie Robinson Elementary is a public Pre-K through 5th grade school in Pasco School District serving about 470 students in a community where the vast majority of families face economic challenges.

While the school's test scores in English, Math, and Science are below the Washington state average, it is important to understand its performance in context. Within the Pasco School District, which ranks very low statewide, Virgie Robinson is actually one of the higher-performing elementary schools. Its proficiency rates are notably better than other district schools like Captain Gray STEM Elementary, Emerson Elementary, and Rowena Chess Elementary. The school is also showing a positive trend, with test scores and its statewide ranking improving over the last few years.

Some interesting strengths are emerging at Virgie Robinson. The school appears particularly effective with its 5th graders, whose English scores are much stronger and approach the state average. It also shows relative success in supporting English Language Learners compared to other schools statewide. While all schools in the Pasco School District face significant challenges, Virgie Robinson's recent improvements and performance compared to its direct peers, such as Robert Frost Elementary, suggest that specific programs or teaching methods at this school are making a positive difference for its students.
