Summary:

Zip code 98857 in Warden, Washington, is served by three public schools—Warden Elementary, Warden Middle School, and Warden High School—all located on the same campus and operated by the Warden School District, which ranks in the bottom tier statewide.

Among these schools, Warden High School is the strongest performer, with the highest graduation rate and the best proficiency in English and science, though still below state averages. In contrast, Warden Middle School faces the most significant academic challenges, with the lowest rankings and proficiency rates in core subjects, particularly in math and science. Warden Elementary shows a recent decline in its statewide ranking, placing it between the other two schools in overall performance.

All three schools serve a student population with high economic need, and academic performance, especially in mathematics, lags considerably behind state averages. The district's performance is consistently low across all levels, indicating systemic challenges, with the middle school appearing as a critical point for potential intervention to improve student outcomes as they progress toward high school.
