Summary:
The Mercer Island School District is home to six exceptional schools, including four elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. These schools consistently rank among the top performers in the state, with several earning prestigious 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
The standout schools in the district are Mercer Island High School, which is consistently ranked among the top 3-6 high schools in Washington, and the elementary schools of Lakeridge and Island Park, which are ranked among the top 11-20 and 7-14 elementary schools in the state, respectively. These schools boast exceptional test scores, with over 90% of students proficient in English Language Arts and over 85% proficient in Math.
The Mercer Island School District as a whole is an exceptional performer, with all of its schools ranked among the top 20-30 in the state. This consistent high performance is likely due to the district's commitment to academic excellence, equitable access to education, and effective resource allocation, as evidenced by the higher-than-average spending per student and the diverse student population with relatively low rates of free/reduced-price lunch eligibility.
