Summary

Maple Elementary School is a K–5 public school in Seattle’s South Seattle area, serving 401 students at 4925 Corson Avenue S. As part of Seattle School District No. 1, it offers a generally strong elementary-school experience, ranking in the 73rd percentile statewide and receiving four stars. Its student-teacher ratio was 12.9 to 1 in 2024–2025, and 50.87% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, giving families useful context about the school’s diverse needs and community setting.

Maple is one of the stronger schools in its nearby comparison group, ranking approximately fourth in both English language arts and math and third in science. In 2025–2026, 58.91% of students were proficient in ELA, 58.71% in math, and 62.90% in science—above Washington averages in all three subjects. Maple trails nearby Hawthorne Elementary School and Pathfinder K-8 School, but it outperformed schools such as John Muir Elementary School, Orca K-8 School, and Kimball Elementary School in both ELA and math. Because some comparison schools serve students through eighth grade, elementary-only comparisons are the fairest.

Math and science are relative strengths, while third grade is the clearest area for attention. Third-grade proficiency was 44.12% in ELA and 51.47% in math, below district averages, but performance improved notably in fourth and fifth grade; fifth-grade ELA reached 70.97%. Maple also ranks in the 90th percentile statewide for outcomes among students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and in the 71st percentile for English language learners. The school’s 2025–2026 results declined from the prior year across all three subjects, so families may want to watch whether this reflects a temporary cohort effect or a longer trend. Overall, Maple appears to be a strong, inclusive neighborhood school with solid results and its greatest opportunity in third-grade support and more consistent ELA performance.
