About our rankings:

* Private schools are not used in determining city rank.
Schooldigger calculates school rankings based on test scores released by the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.
These rankings were last updated on August 5, 2017, and are based on the most recent test scores available. We update rankings as we receive new test scores from the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, usually on a yearly basis.
Our sources of data include the National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Department of Education and the Washington State Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.
For more information about our ranking process, please see our Ranking FAQ. Details about our methodology are here.
