Summary:

The four schools in Edmunds Central School District 22-5 serve students from pre-K through grade 12, from 12 students at the K–8 Boulder Colony School to 61 at the pre-K–5 Edmunds Central Elementary. The 2025–2026 results show different strengths across schools: elementary leads the middle school in ELA, while the high school’s ACT results are strongest in ELA and science. The clearest shared concern in the two schools with current all-grades results is math: both are around 35% proficient, versus 44% statewide.

Edmunds Central Elementary stands out in ELA, with 53% proficient—10 points above the middle school and 4 points above the state. In math, Edmunds Central Middle narrowly leads elementary, 36% to 35%, though both are 8 points below the state. Middle-school results vary considerably by grade: 8th-grade ELA reached 58%, while 7th-grade ELA was 31%; 6th-grade math was 50%, compared with 19% in 7th grade. The high school’s 11th-grade ACT results were 67% in both ELA and science, 18 and 22 points above state results, while math was 33%, 1 point below. Boulder Colony had 100% proficiency in both subjects in 2024–2025 and SchoolDigger ranked it 1st of 300 schools, in the 100th percentile with five stars; its latest scores are suppressed.

Recent changes are mixed: elementary ELA rose 8 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, but its math fell 15 points; middle-school math rose 21 points, yet remains below the state. SchoolDigger’s rankings also changed over time: the elementary school moved from the 1st percentile in 2023–2024 to the 48th in 2024–2025, while the high school rose from the 49th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 83rd in 2025–2026. For 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible students were 34% at elementary, 39% at middle school and 30% at high school; student-teacher ratios were 6.8, 10.6 and 10.5, respectively. The high school’s graduation rate was 77%, below the state’s 88%, and its dropout rate was 5%, compared with 2% statewide. These figures offer context, but schools serve different grades and their results do not establish why performance differs.
