Summary

Raymond Elementary School is a public K-6 school serving 245 students in the Raymond School District, and it stands out as a remarkable success story of consistent academic improvement in recent years.

The school has shown impressive growth, climbing from one of the lowest-performing schools in the state to a mid-performing school, with its statewide ranking jumping 30 percentile points since 2021. This positive trajectory is the most dramatic among nearby schools. Notably, Raymond Elementary School excels in supporting its high-need population, ranking significantly higher for economically disadvantaged students than its overall rank, and it has made substantial gains for Hispanic students.

Challenges remain in math and science proficiency, but the school's efficient use of resources and effective, equity-focused practices for its student community make it a relative strength within its broader district.
