Summary

Hilltop Heritage Elementary School is a K–5 school serving 576 students in Renton, Washington, at 1075 Duvall Ave NE, in a community less than 2.5 miles from most comparison schools. In 2025–2026, it ranked in the 66th percentile statewide, or 392nd of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, and received 3 out of 5 stars. Its standing has improved notably from the 48th percentile three years earlier, placing it above the overall Renton School District ranking of the 52nd percentile.

Math is Hilltop’s clearest strength. The school’s 56.00% all-grade math proficiency rate was 13.10 percentage points above the district and 12.89 points above the state. Hilltop exceeded district and state results in math for third, fourth, and fifth grades, with especially strong third-grade performance. Science was also above district and state levels at 53.49%. English Language Arts was approximately equal to the state overall at 52.99%, although fourth-grade ELA was a weaker area, while fifth-grade ELA was particularly strong. Results have improved since 2023–2024 in all three subjects, including an 8.66-point gain in science.

Among nearby Renton schools, Hilltop is stronger than Tiffany Park Elementary School, Sierra Heights Elementary School, Highlands Elementary School, and Honey Dew Elementary, but trails Kennydale Elementary School, Sartori Elementary School, and especially Maplewood Heights Elementary School. Nearby Issaquah School District schools also report substantially higher results. Hilltop’s potential priorities include fourth-grade ELA, science, English Language Learner effectiveness, and special education support. Its 48.44% free- or reduced-price lunch rate is near the middle of the Renton comparison group, while its 17.6 student-teacher ratio is comparatively high.
