Summary:
ZIP code 99207 has 11 schools serving approximately 5,523 students across elementary, middle, and high school grades, all within the Spokane School District; most schools serve high-need student populations, with roughly 77% to 88% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Longfellow Elementary is the clear academic standout, leading the area in 2025–2026 English language arts, math, and science proficiency, with an average of about 44.7% across the three subjects. It also has the strongest elementary ranking and a relatively low student-teacher ratio. Whitman Elementary is the next strongest elementary school overall, particularly in math, although its science results declined sharply. Garry Middle School leads the middle schools, especially in science, while Shaw Middle School and Denny Yasuhara Middle School report lower proficiency, particularly in math. Among the high schools, Rogers High School has the strongest reported testing profile, while On Track Academy has the highest graduation rate and lowest dropout rate.
Math is the most consistent challenge across the area: most schools report proficiency below 25%, with Longfellow and Whitman the notable exceptions. Logan Elementary, Regal Elementary, and Bemiss Elementary have the lowest overall academic results, especially in math. High-school graduation outcomes are more positive than test scores: Rogers and On Track both exceed the state graduation rate. On Track’s math result is suppressed and should be treated as unknown, not zero. The Spokane Area Professional-Technical Skills Center is a small specialized program and is not directly comparable with the neighborhood’s larger comprehensive schools.
