Summary:
Arlington School District includes 10 schools serving 5,588 students from elementary through high school in the Arlington area, with five elementary schools, two middle schools, and three high-school programs. Overall, the district ranks 76th out of 238 Washington districts and has shown improvement at several schools. Elementary schools are generally the strongest part of the district, especially in science, while middle-school mathematics is the clearest area of concern.
Among elementary schools, Presidents Elementary stands out for its 75% science proficiency and 53.72% math proficiency, while Kent Prairie Elementary has the district’s highest elementary ranking and balanced results across English language arts, math, and science. Pioneer Elementary has made the largest ranking improvement over three years and performs especially well in science. Eagle Creek Elementary is stronger in math and science than in English language arts. Stillaguamish Valley Learning Center serves a broader K–8 population and has lower reported math and English language arts results; some of its graduation and dropout figures are historical and should not be treated as current.
Arlington High School is the strongest overall secondary school, with a 90.5% graduation rate, a 6.5% dropout rate, strong English language arts and science results, and a 78th-percentile ranking. Post Middle School has improved and currently outperforms Haller Middle School, but math is a challenge at both schools. Weston High School and Arlington Open Doors serve smaller or alternative populations, so their graduation and achievement results require careful context rather than direct comparison with Arlington High School.
