Summary

Hathaway Elementary is a public elementary school (PK-5) serving 272 students in the Washougal School District, and it stands out as a school on a strong, decade-long upward trend, now ranking in the 63rd percentile statewide.

Academically, Hathaway is the top-performing elementary school within its own district, particularly excelling in science where 73.5% of students are proficient—far above both district and state averages. The school also performs well in English Language Arts. While math scores have been more variable, the school demonstrates remarkable effectiveness in supporting its students, as it achieves these solid outcomes while serving the highest percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds in the Washougal School District. This success with student subgroups is a key strength, suggesting the school has developed effective support systems.

When looking at nearby schools, Hathaway's performance is strong within its district context compared to peers like Cape Horn Skye Elementary and Gause Elementary. However, schools in the neighboring, higher-rated Camas School District, such as Grass Valley Elementary and Dorothy Fox, have higher test scores, a difference often linked to varying community resources and student demographics between the districts. Hathaway's story is one of using its resources effectively to foster consistent improvement and notable success in science.
