The school's academic performance is mixed, with some grades performing above the state average in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, while others fall below. However, the school's Science proficiency rates are above the state average. A concerning issue is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 35.4%, which may be impacting the overall academic performance.
Additionally, a significant portion (72.53%) of Stanwood A.

The lack of diversity in the student population is also an area that the school may need to address. Overall, while Stanwood A.
