Summary

Stanwood Elementary School is a public elementary school serving about 430 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in the Stanwood-Camano School District, a mid-ranked district in the Stanwood, WA area.

Academically, Stanwood Elementary performs around the state average in English and Math but has a noticeable gap in Science compared to both the state and district. When looking at nearby schools in the same district, it generally outperforms Elger Bay Elementary and Utsalady Elementary in core subjects, but trails behind higher-performing schools like Cedarhome Elementary and Twin City Elementary. The school's overall state ranking has dipped in recent years, though it has maintained a consistent 3-star rating.

A key strength of Stanwood Elementary is its effective support for students with greater economic needs and those in special education, where it ranks well above average statewide. However, classes are larger here than at many comparison schools, with a higher student-teacher ratio. While per-student spending is mid-range for the area, the school's results show that targeted support can be very effective even with larger class sizes. Families may appreciate the school's resilient and supportive environment, particularly for students who benefit from extra help.
