Summary:
ZIP code 98635 has one listed elementary school: Dallesport Elementary, a small K–5 school serving 91 students in Dallesport, Washington. The school is part of the Lyle School District, so families in this ZIP code do not have multiple elementary schools to compare locally. Its small enrollment and 12.4-to-1 student-teacher ratio may allow for more individualized attention, although test scores and school resources should be considered together.
Dallesport Elementary performed somewhat better than its district in 2025–2026. Overall ELA proficiency was 31.43%, compared with 29.35% for the district, while math proficiency was 28.57%, compared with 19.57%. Fourth-grade results were stronger than third-grade results in both subjects: 36.36% of fourth graders met standards in ELA and math, compared with 26.67% of third graders. However, the school remained below Washington averages, which were 52.81% in ELA and 43.11% in math. Fifth-grade and schoolwide science results were suppressed, so those outcomes cannot be evaluated from the available data.
Parents should also note that Dallesport Elementary’s ELA results improved by 4.16 percentage points from the prior year, while math declined by 4.76 points. Its latest statewide ranking was 1,016th out of 1,138 elementary schools, placing it in the 11th percentile. About 64.84% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, providing important economic context when reviewing achievement results. Per-student spending was $26,797 in 2023–2024. Overall, the school’s main strengths are its small setting, favorable staffing ratio, and performance above the district in ELA and math; its main challenges are the continuing gap with statewide results and the recent decline in math.
