Summary

John Rogers Elementary School is a public K-5 school serving 248 students in Seattle's Seattle School District No. 1, known for its consistent middle-tier performance while serving a student population with significant economic need.

The school maintains a stable 3-star rating, with academic proficiency rates close to the state average but below the district average. An interesting finding is that student performance tends to improve in later grades, with fifth graders showing notably stronger results in English Language Arts than third or fourth graders. The school also demonstrates a relative strength in science compared to other subjects. However, it faces the challenge of a rapidly increasing number of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which has coincided with a recent slight dip in its statewide ranking.

When compared to nearby schools, a stark contrast emerges. While Wedgwood Elementary School and View Ridge Elementary School are among the state's top performers, John Rogers, along with Olympic Hills Elementary School and James Baldwin Elementary School, serves a much higher-need population and achieves more moderate results. This highlights the wide range of educational experiences within a small geographic area. Despite spending a similar amount per student as some higher-performing schools like Thornton Creek Elementary School, John Rogers' outcomes are lower, suggesting the unique challenges of its demographic context or differences in how resources are deployed.
