Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98522

ZIP code 98522 has two public schools serving students from prekindergarten through 12th grade, both part of the Adna School District. The schools enroll 634 students: Adna Elementary School serves grades PK–5, while Adna Middle/High School serves grades 6–12. The district ranks 53rd of 238 Washington districts, placing it in the 78th percentile with a four-star rating, but school performance differs considerably between the elementary and secondary levels.

Adna Elementary School is the clear standout. It ranks 132nd of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, in the 88th percentile, and has improved substantially from the 73rd percentile two years earlier. In 2025–2026, 77.69% of students were proficient in English language arts and 72.31% in math. Those results were 24.88 and 29.20 percentage points above statewide rates, respectively, and both subjects improved from the prior year. Some science and grade-level results were suppressed for privacy, so those areas cannot be fully evaluated. The school had 265 students, a 30.57% free-or-reduced-price lunch rate, and an 18.0 student-teacher ratio.

Adna Middle/High School serves more students—369—and has shown recent improvement, rising from the 46th to the 58th percentile and returning to a three-star rating. However, its proficiency rates remain lower: 51.05% in ELA, 36.51% in math, and 46.15% in science. Math is the largest concern, although it improved nearly 10 points year over year. Seventh grade was especially weak in both ELA and math, while 10th-grade ELA was a bright spot. Parents comparing the schools should view the elementary results as a major strength and the secondary years—particularly math and the transition into middle school—as the main areas to monitor.
