Best Public Schools in Lake Stevens, WA

Summary:

The Lake Stevens School District in Washington state comprises 11 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The district is known for its consistently high-performing schools, with several standout institutions that excel in areas like standardized test scores, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios.

Among the top-performing schools in the district are Hillcrest Elementary School, which boasts impressive science proficiency rates and strong performance in English language arts and math, and Stevens Creek Elementary, another high-achieving elementary school with excellent science scores and a favorable student-teacher ratio. The district's lone high school, Lake Stevens Senior High School, also stands out with a strong graduation rate and solid 10th-grade English language arts proficiency.

While the Lake Stevens School District as a whole appears to be a high-performing system, there is some variation in the performance of its elementary schools, with a few, like Glenwood Elementary and Mt. Pilchuck Elementary, lagging slightly behind their peers. The district's two middle schools, North Lake Middle School and Lake Stevens Middle School, also face challenges, with lower test scores and rankings compared to the elementary schools, a common phenomenon known as the "middle school dip" that many districts work to address.
