Medina is a standout academically. It ranked first among 1,138 Washington elementary schools in 2025–2026 and placed in the top four statewide in each of the previous two years. In 2025–2026, 95.07% of students were proficient in English Language Arts and 96.85% were proficient in math. Those results were 21.64 and 27.24 percentage points higher than the district, respectively, and 42.26 and 53.74 points higher than the state. Reported grade-level results were also excellent: third-grade ELA proficiency was 92.78%, fifth-grade ELA was 94.66%, and fifth-grade math was 96.24%. The school’s student-teacher ratio was 21.5 to 1.
The school also improved from the prior year, with ELA rising 2.60 percentage points and math increasing 3.40 points from 2024–2025. Science was similarly strong in 2024–2025, when 91.43% of students were proficient, although the 2025–2026 science result is suppressed. Several other grade-level figures are also suppressed to protect student privacy; these should not be interpreted as low or zero performance. The reported free or reduced-price lunch rate was 5.58%, and spending was $20,137 per student in 2023–2024. Overall, the available data portray Medina as a consistently top-performing school, with particularly strong math and broad academic performance across reported grades.
