Summary:

Schools in ZIP code 99202 include seven schools serving elementary, high school, and alternative-program students, with about 2,010 students enrolled; there are four elementary schools, two high schools, one alternative school, and no separately listed middle school. The area offers a wide range of school models and outcomes, so families should compare individual programs rather than assume all schools have similar performance. The traditional elementary schools are generally below Spokane School District and Washington averages, while the strongest results come from specialized or higher-grade programs.

Innovation High School is the strongest current performer with available data. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were 71.15% in English language arts, 63.33% in science, and 27.45% in math, and its 90% graduation rate exceeded the state rate. Math is the school’s main weakness despite strong improvement in other subjects. Libby Center has the strongest historical record: it ranked second statewide in 2023–2024, and its 2024–2025 proficiency rates exceeded 93% in every reported subject. However, its latest school-level scores are suppressed, so current performance cannot be determined.

Among traditional elementary schools, Grant Elementary leads in current overall ELA and math and had especially strong fourth-grade results. Frances Scott Elementary has the strongest elementary science performance, while Stevens Elementary shows relative strength in third grade but weaker fourth- and fifth-grade results. Spokane Virtual Academy improved notably in every reported subject, especially science, but math and graduation remain challenges. NEWESD 101 Open Doors has too little assessment information for a meaningful comparison.
