Best Public Schools in Burlington, WA


Summary:

The Burlington-Edison School District in Burlington, Washington, serves students across four public schools—three elementary schools that also handle middle grades and one high school—in a district ranked in the lower quarter statewide.

Among these schools, Burlington Edison High School stands out as the top performer, with a graduation rate and science scores above the state average. In contrast, the three elementary schools face significant challenges, all performing in the state's bottom 30%. Bay View Elementary shows the strongest elementary test scores and a positive trend, while Lucille Umbarger Elementary has the district's lowest proficiency rates and a very low state ranking.

The Burlington-Edison School District invests heavily per student and maintains low student-teacher ratios, particularly in elementary schools. However, math proficiency is a critical weakness across all schools, with no school meeting the state average. The high school's relative success in some areas demonstrates potential, but the elementary performance indicates foundational academic struggles that the district is working to address.
