Summary

Glenwood Elementary is a highly-regarded K-5 public school serving 641 students in the top-rated Lake Stevens School District, consistently earning 4-star ratings for its strong academic performance that exceeds state averages.

The school stands out for its exceptional results in math and science, significantly outperforming both state and many local benchmarks, including nearby schools in the Snohomish School District. Glenwood is particularly effective in supporting students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, achieving top-tier results for this group. It also maintains remarkably stable and strong performance across all grade levels, unlike some peers like Skyline Elementary which can see significant dips in upper grades. Furthermore, Glenwood accomplishes this with very efficient use of resources, spending less per student than several neighboring schools with similar or lower performance, such as Central Emerson Elementary.

While Glenwood is a model of consistent excellence, it faces a significant challenge in serving its special education students, an area requiring focused improvement. The school has also experienced a slight recent decline in its overall statewide ranking. Within its own district, Stevens Creek Elementary serves as a high-performing benchmark, particularly in science. Overall, Glenwood provides a stable, high-quality, and cost-effective education, with a proven track record of success for the majority of its students.
