Summary

Sharpstein Elementary School is a K-5 public school serving about 340 students in the Walla Walla Public Schools district, notable for its high level of economic need and significant investment in resources.

The school dedicates more money per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio than other elementary schools in Walla Walla, such as Prospect Point Elementary and Green Park Elementary School. Academically, its overall performance has varied over time and is in the middle-to-lower range compared to schools in the region. However, Sharpstein shows a relative strength in supporting its many students from low-income families, performing better for that group than its overall ranking suggests. In math, the school's proficiency recently exceeded the district average.

When looking at nearby districts, schools like Waitsburg Elementary School and Prescott Elementary School often achieve higher rankings, even with similar levels of student need. Within its own district, there is a noticeable performance gap between Sharpstein and the higher-ranked Prospect Point Elementary, highlighting different outcomes across the community. This suggests that while Sharpstein is deploying considerable resources to support its students, broader district and community factors may influence results.
