Summary

Spokane Public Montessori is a public school in Spokane, WA, serving 413 students in prekindergarten through grade 8. Its broader grade span distinguishes it from most nearby schools, which primarily serve elementary grades. The school is part of Spokane School District, ranked 118th of 238 Washington districts, while the school ranks 717th of 1,138 statewide, in the 37th percentile. For parents comparing local options, these rankings suggest a middle-of-the-pack school overall, although its subject-by-subject results show important strengths.

Science is the school’s clearest academic advantage. In 2025–2026, 58.90% of students were proficient in science, above the district’s 48.27% and the state’s 50.95%. The school also had the highest nearby ELA result, at 48.33%, narrowly ahead of Longfellow Elementary at 47.55%, and the highest nearby science result, ahead of Finch Elementary at 51.47%. Math is the main challenge: 30.13% were proficient, compared with 39.62% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. By grade, grade 7 was a notable bright spot, with 72.73% proficiency in ELA and 48.48% in math, while grade 8 results were much weaker, particularly in math at 16.00%.

Recent results improved modestly in all three subjects, and the school’s ranking rose from the 30th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 37th percentile in 2025–2026. It compares favorably with lower-ranked nearby schools such as Willard Elementary, Logan Elementary, and Audubon Elementary, but trails stronger overall performers such as Finch Elementary, Ridgeview Elementary, and Longfellow Elementary. Reported staffing and spending are less favorable than nearby schools—a 21.0-to-1 student-teacher ratio and $15,256 per-student spending—but comparisons should account for the school’s PK–8 structure. Key questions for families include how the school supports middle-school math, why grade 7 performs so strongly, and how it sustains its consistent science results.
