Summary

Wide Hollow Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 433 students in Yakima, Washington, and is part of the highly-regarded West Valley School District (Yakima), which ranks in the top third of all districts in the state.

The school stands out for achieving strong academic results while serving a community with significant economic need, outperforming many nearby schools with similar student demographics. For example, its 64.4% science proficiency rate is notably higher than both state and district averages. When compared to a similar school in its own district, Summitview Elementary, Wide Hollow ranks significantly higher overall and shows stronger proficiency in English, math, and especially science. This performance is even more striking when looking at schools in the neighboring Yakima School District, where schools like Robertson Elementary and Whitney Elementary have much lower test scores despite similar or higher levels of economic disadvantage.

Within its own district, Wide Hollow is a solid performer, though schools like Apple Valley Elementary and Cottonwood Elementary School achieve higher overall rankings. The analysis shows that Wide Hollow is particularly effective at supporting economically disadvantaged students, but it has clear room for growth in serving students in special education and English language learner programs. The school's stable performance within a strong district suggests it is a reliable choice that successfully leverages district resources to support student achievement.
