Summary

Zillah Intermediate School in Zillah, Washington, serves 270 students in grades 3–5 and has a relatively small enrollment compared with many nearby schools. Part of the Zillah School District, it has a 16.8:1 student-teacher ratio and serves a diverse community with about 65.93% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. For 2025–2026, the school ranked 531st of 1,138 Washington schools, placing it in the 53rd percentile.

Academically, Zillah Intermediate is one of the strongest nearby schools, particularly in mathematics. Its 55.04% math proficiency rate was well above Washington’s 43.11% and exceeded results at Adams Elementary, Satus Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, Lincoln Elementary School, Garfield Elementary School, Kirkwood Elementary School, and Valley View Elementary. Its 51.8% ELA rate was close to the state average and higher than the nearby comparison schools with available results. Science is the main exception: 35.16% of students met standards, compared with 50.95% statewide, although this still exceeded nearby comparison results.

Parents should look closely at the grade-level differences behind the overall scores. Third grade was exceptionally strong, with 70.79% proficiency in ELA and 84.27% in math, but performance dropped to 42.86% in ELA for both fourth and fifth grades, while math fell to 48.98% in fourth grade and 32.97% in fifth. Science has also remained below the state in each reported year. The school’s effectiveness rankings are especially strong for English Language Learners and students from low-income backgrounds, suggesting useful supports for these groups. Spending was similar to same-district Hilton Elementary School, even though Hilton serves younger students. Overall, Zillah offers strong local academic results, with the greatest opportunities involving fifth-grade math, science, and sustaining third-grade success through later grades.
