Summary:
ZIP code 98813 has one elementary school, Bridgeport Elementary, serving Pre-K through fifth grade in the Bridgeport community. The school enrolls 347 students and is the only elementary option represented in the ZIP code, so there is no within-area school comparison. Families should consider its performance alongside the broader Bridgeport School District and Washington state results.
Bridgeport Elementary reported 2025–2026 proficiency rates of 9.26% in English Language Arts and 8.49% in math. These were below district rates of 18.38% and 10.60%, respectively, and well below Washington averages of 52.81% in ELA and 43.11% in math. Third grade performed somewhat better than fourth grade in both subjects, while fourth grade had the lowest reported results. The school’s statewide ranking improved modestly to the 3rd percentile, after ranking in the 1st and 2nd percentiles in the two prior reported years, but it remains among the lowest-ranked schools statewide.
Recent trends are mixed. ELA proficiency rose 1.73 percentage points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while math declined 8.06 points, making math the clearest area for further review. Grade-level results matched district results in each reported subject and grade, suggesting the school reflects broader district performance rather than standing apart from it. About 89.91% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that many families may benefit from strong academic interventions, attendance support, family engagement, and other wraparound services. The 16.5:1 student-teacher ratio and $19,889 in per-student spending provide useful context, but do not by themselves show class sizes, staffing levels, or program quality.
