Summary

Ray Reynolds Middle School is a large public school serving 1,294 students in grades 6–8 in Pasco, a growing Tri-Cities community, as part of the Pasco School District. The school ranks in the 41st percentile among Washington middle schools and received two stars for 2025–2026. Its 54.95% free- or reduced-price lunch rate indicates that many families face economic challenges, and its 20.3-to-1 student-teacher ratio reflects the demands of a very large campus.

Within Pasco, Ray Reynolds is the clear academic leader. In 2025–2026, 43.14% of students reached proficiency in English language arts, 31.57% in math, and 41.22% in science. Those results exceed the district averages by 8.02, 6.56, and 9.29 percentage points, respectively. Ray Reynolds also outperformed nearby Mcloughlin Middle School by 5.24 points in ELA, 7.84 in math, and 7.00 in science. ELA performance is notably steady across grades, while science improved strongly after declining the previous year. Math is the main academic concern, especially eighth grade, where proficiency was 28.72%.

The school remains below Washington averages—52.81% in ELA, 43.11% in math, and 50.95% in science—so its strength is primarily local rather than statewide. It compares favorably with Park Middle School, Highlands Middle School, and Carmichael Middle School, but trails stronger schools such as Desert Hills Middle School. Parents may want to ask about eighth-grade math support, services for English language learners and special education students, and how the school is sustaining its science gains. Overall, Ray Reynolds offers a relatively strong academic option within Pasco, with clear opportunities to close statewide gaps.
