Summary:

This analysis covers four elementary schools (grades K-5) located in the 98685 zip code of Vancouver, Washington, all part of the Vancouver School District.

Parents in this area will find a generally high-performing local elementary school environment, with three of the four schools ranking in the top 30% of Washington state. Felida Elementary School is the top performer, consistently ranking in the 79th percentile, while Salmon Creek Elementary has shown remarkable recent improvement, jumping into the 80th percentile. Chinook Elementary School also performs well above average. Notably, all these schools outperform their district's averages in every core subject.

In contrast, Sacajawea Elementary School ranks significantly lower, in the 33rd percentile, and performs below both district and state averages. A key finding is that higher per-student spending at a school does not automatically correlate with higher test scores in this group. Across all schools, math scores tend to decline from 3rd to 5th grade, which is an area for potential focus. Despite the overall strength of the individual schools in this zip code, it's important to note the Vancouver School District itself is ranked in the bottom third of districts statewide.
