It ranks 126th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 89th percentile statewide and earning four stars. The school’s ranking improved notably from 199th in 2024–25, making it one of the strongest neighborhood schools in its local comparison group.

Academic performance is Moran Prairie’s biggest strength. In 2025–26, 70.80% of students were proficient in English language arts, 70.67% in math, and 85.92% in science. These results were well above both district and state averages, and they led nearby schools with current reported results. For comparison, Hutton Elementary posted 65.69% in ELA, 67.36% in math, and 79.71% in science, while Mullan Road Elementary reported 66.52%, 64.38%, and 66.22%, respectively. Science is especially notable: Moran Prairie’s 85.92% rate represents a strong rebound from 67.57% the prior year, although families may want to watch whether this unusually high result continues. Math also improved substantially, while ELA has remained consistently strong.

Performance rises across the reported elementary grades. Fifth-grade students reached 81.69% proficiency in ELA, 76.06% in math, and 85.92% in science, all substantially above district and state results. The school also ranked in the 94th percentile statewide for its low-income student subgroup, suggesting strong outcomes for students facing greater economic challenges.

Horrible experience. Teacher does not follow 504 plan, puts kids in the hall alone, shames them and bullies them. There is no active learning or promotional of creativity. Your child is supposed to fit into a box. Close Quote
