Summary

Sultan Elementary School is a K–5 public school in the Sultan, Washington area, serving 676 students and belonging to the Sultan School District. It is a relatively large elementary school compared with nearby options and ranks around the 64th percentile statewide, placing it in the upper-middle range of Washington schools. The school’s district ranks around the 60th percentile statewide, and Sultan Elementary has generally performed above the state midpoint in recent years, although its rating recently declined from four stars to three.

The school’s clearest academic strengths are math and science. In 2025–26, 55.48% of students met standards in math and 59% did so in science—well above district averages and ahead of Gold Bar Elementary, the district’s other school, by 16.05 and 13.69 percentage points, respectively. Math is especially strong in third and fourth grades, while fifth-grade math, at 45%, is an area to watch. Science has remained above state and district averages, though it has eased from its 67.03% result in 2023–24. Compared with nearby schools, Sultan trails higher-performing schools such as Dutch Hill Elementary, Stillwater Elementary, and Cherry Valley Elementary School, but is competitive with Fryelands Elementary and Chain Lake Elementary School.

English Language Arts is the main recent concern: proficiency fell to 50.48% in 2025–26 after staying near 57% for the previous three years, slightly below the state average. The school is notably effective at serving English Language Learners, ranking in the 78th percentile, but its special education subgroup ranking was at the 9th percentile, making this an important area for improvement. Sultan’s reported free/reduced-price lunch rate was 40.53%, providing useful context when comparing it with schools in communities with different student needs. Overall, Sultan Elementary appears to be a solid school with strong math and science results, meaningful long-term improvement, and priorities around ELA, fifth-grade math, and special education support.
