THis elementary school is a bastion of the samll, close knit community of Chattaroy WA. The School District tried to slice out several grades and reconfigure it to a K-2 school. The community rose up, insisted and resisted. (The reconfiguration issue made the local TV news,BTW) Today the school has lost the 5th grade to the Riverside Campus 8 miles north and remains a PK-4 elementary school. It is wellknow for smaller calsses, lots of volunteer parents and also a good helping of teachers aids. Overall, except for the deteriorating playground equipment, the school is well kept and functions as a core element in the community for a great number of purposes. Many of the children attending live neraby in a planend urban manufactured housing development or within a few miles of the school proper.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Washington used the Measurements of Student Progress (MSP) to test students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, in writing in grades 4 and 7, and in science in grades 5 and 8. The MSP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Washington. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
