Summary

Wing Luke Elementary School is a public elementary school (PK-5) serving 334 students in the Seattle School District No. 1, located in a neighborhood where many families face economic challenges.

Academic performance at Wing Luke has declined significantly in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from the 52nd percentile to the 19th percentile in just two years, resulting in a current 1-star rating; test scores in English, math, and science are all below district and state averages. This decline is more severe than at most nearby schools, and it's notable because Wing Luke operates with a favorable student-teacher ratio and receives substantial per-student funding—over $31,000 per student—which is higher than many surrounding schools like Dearborn Park International School and Orca K-8 School that achieve better results with fewer resources.

When compared to schools with similar student populations, such as Rising Star Elementary School and Dunlap Elementary School, Wing Luke's outcomes are lower, suggesting school-specific factors are influencing performance. The school shows a mix of results across grades, with third-grade performance being relatively stronger, while fifth-grade math scores are particularly low. Parents may also wish to note the performance of the nearby charter school, Impact | Salish Sea Elementary, which serves a similar community with different results.
