Summary

Sacajawea Elementary School is a public K–5 school serving 403 students in Vancouver, Washington, within the Vancouver School District; it is located near Salmon Creek Elementary, Sarah J Anderson Elementary, and Dwight D Eisenhower Elementary, with several notably higher-performing schools nearby. The school ranks at the 28th percentile statewide for 2025–2026 and has a 1-star rating.

Academic results are mixed. In 2025–2026, 35.5% of students were proficient in both English language arts and math, while 46.15% were proficient in science. Math and science were above Vancouver School District averages, but ELA was below the district and state. Fourth grade is the clearest concern: proficiency was 29.73% in ELA and 28.38% in math. By comparison, third-grade math and fifth-grade ELA were relative strengths. Results also vary widely among nearby schools. Salmon Creek Elementary, Chinook Elementary School, and Felida Elementary School had much higher math and ELA proficiency, while Sacajawea performed better than some schools such as Minnehaha Elementary School and Hazel Dell Elementary School.

The school’s 43.67% free- or reduced-price meal rate provides important community context, but nearby comparisons show that economic factors do not explain all performance differences. Per-student spending was $20,323 in 2023–2024, while the student-teacher ratio rose to 18.1:1 from 15.0:1 two years earlier. ELA declined notably from the previous year, although science improved. Effectiveness measures also point to weaker outcomes for female students and students from low-income households. Key areas to watch are fourth-grade instruction, ELA improvement, subgroup achievement gaps, staffing levels, and the reasons some nearby schools are achieving substantially stronger results.
