Best Public Schools in Snohomish, WA

Summary:

Snohomish, Washington, is served by 19 public schools across the Snohomish School District and Monroe School District, educating roughly 8,870 students from kindergarten through 12th grade in a mix of traditional and alternative programs.

The area features several standout schools, including top-performing Glacier Peak High School with its high graduation rate and Totem Falls elementary, which excels in science. In contrast, some schools face greater challenges, such as AIM High School, which has a lower graduation rate, and Central Emerson Elementary, which is the lowest-ranked elementary school in the area.

Overall, the Snohomish School District schools generally rank higher than those in the Monroe School District. Performance often correlates with economic need, as schools with lower rates of students qualifying for free lunch, like Little Cedars Elementary School, tend to have higher academic rankings, though exceptions exist. Middle schools like Centennial Middle School show a typical dip in math scores, while high schools like Snohomish High School have shown impressive recent improvement.
