What the reported data says about Washington Elementary
Washington Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades KG–05 in VANCOUVER. It is one of 44 current school records connected to Vancouver School District. NCES reports 244 students for 2024–25.
Among 1,223 elementary schools in Washington with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 406 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 14th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 17.3:1, above the Washington median of 15.7:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are Hispanic or Latino (45.1%) and White (39.3%). English learners represent 28.4% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 11.2%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
