Summary

Forest View Elementary is a highly-regarded public school serving about 630 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in a high-performing area of the Everett School District.

The school has a strong, decade-long record of academic excellence, consistently ranking in the top 10% of all Washington elementary schools. Its 2024-2025 test scores in English, Math, and Science are significantly higher than both district and state averages, with its Science proficiency being a particular standout among nearby schools. While it is part of a cluster of top-tier schools in the district—including Tambark Creek Elementary School, Cedar Wood Elementary, and Silver Firs Elementary—Forest View differentiates itself with exceptional support for all students.

A key strength is the school's remarkable effectiveness with diverse student groups; its rankings for serving English Language Learners, students from low-income families, and students in special education are often even higher than its excellent overall rank. This indicates a school-wide system that works well for every child. Furthermore, Forest View achieves these outstanding results with moderate per-student spending compared to some peers, suggesting efficient and effective use of resources.
