Summary

Stevens Elementary is a public Pre-K through 5th grade school in the Spokane School District, serving 438 students in a high-needs area where a large majority qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, Stevens faces significant challenges, with test scores in reading, math, and science below district and state averages, placing it in the bottom quartile of Washington elementary schools. However, it's important to look deeper: the school has shown a clear and positive trend of improvement over the last several years, moving from the 2nd to the 11th percentile statewide. This progress is notable when compared to some nearby schools with similar student populations, such as Logan Elementary, which has declined to the 1st percentile. Stevens also spends less per student than Logan but achieves better outcomes, suggesting effective use of resources. The school shows particular strength in supporting its male students and students from low-income families, performing better with these groups than its overall ranking would predict.

There are areas for focus, including a puzzling and sharp drop in proficiency between 3rd and 4th grade that the school will need to address. Compared to other schools in the area, Stevens ranks 8th out of 10 nearby schools, outperforming only Regal Elementary and Logan. Parents may note the stark contrast with the highly-ranked Libby Center magnet program just over a mile away. For families, the key takeaways are that Stevens serves a high-needs community, is on an upward trajectory, and has demonstrated specific successes it can build upon while working to stabilize performance across all grade levels.
