Summary:
Snoqualmie has nine schools serving about 4,670 students from prekindergarten through grade 12, with most schools in the highly ranked Snoqualmie Valley School District and one specialized school in the Issaquah School District. The area’s traditional public schools are consistently among Washington’s strongest, while several smaller alternative and specialized programs serve distinct student populations and should be evaluated separately.
The strongest overall options are Snoqualmie Middle School, Mount Si High School, and the three regular elementary schools. Snoqualmie Middle ranks #10 statewide and rose sharply from #33 over three years, with 83.43% proficiency in English language arts, 76.29% in math, and 80.00% in science. Mount Si ranks #12 among Washington high schools, graduates 96.3% of students, and reports a 2.5% dropout rate. Its English language arts result is especially strong at 89.66%, although math at 63.22% is an area parents may want to monitor. Cascade View Elementary School has the highest elementary ranking, while Snoqualmie Elementary leads elementary schools in math and Timber Ridge Elementary School offers balanced results and the lowest elementary student-teacher ratio.
Across the five traditional schools, English language arts averages about 83%, math 76%, and science 80%, all well above Washington averages. Results do vary by grade and year: Mount Si science and Snoqualmie Elementary English language arts recently declined, while Snoqualmie Middle science improved substantially. Meadowbrook School, Echo Glen School, Two Rivers School, and Snoqualmie Access are much smaller and have specialized programs, unusual staffing or spending figures, and more suppressed data. Their outcomes are best compared with similar programs rather than neighborhood schools; suppressed figures mean the information is unavailable, not that performance is zero.
