Summary

Satus Elementary is a public school in Wapato, Washington, serving 298 students in grades 3–5 within the high-need Wapato School District. About 84.9% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, and the district ranks 234th out of 238 Washington districts, or approximately the 2nd percentile statewide. The school’s student-teacher ratio is 15.5:1, and its 2023–24 spending was $20,715 per student.

Academically, Satus Elementary is a local standout despite its low statewide position. In 2025–26, 32.28% of students were proficient in English language arts, 29.68% in math, and 23.81% in science. Those results exceeded the Wapato School District averages in every subject, with the largest advantage in math. Satus also outperformed the closest same-grade comparison, Adams Elementary, by about 12–13 percentage points in each tested subject. Compared with nearby schools, Satus had the highest ELA and math proficiency among the schools listed, including Lincoln Elementary School, Valley View Elementary, Kirkwood Elementary School, Harrah Elementary School, and Garfield Elementary School.

For parents, the main strengths are Satus’s relative local performance, particularly in math, and its steady grade-level ELA pattern: proficiency rose from 29.29% in third grade to 35.58% in fifth grade. Important areas for improvement include science, which was more than 27 points below the Washington average, and fifth-grade math, which fell to 25.71% after stronger third- and fourth-grade results. The school’s statewide ranking improved during 2022–25 but declined to the 5th percentile in 2025–26, showing that local advantages have not yet translated into state-level results. The ELL subgroup’s ranking also dropped from the 42nd percentile to the 11th percentile over three years, making language-support services an important area to examine.
