Summary:
The Edmonds School District in Washington serves high school students across seven diverse schools, including four large comprehensive high schools, an e-learning academy, a career access program, and an alternative high school, with the district consistently outperforming state averages in graduation rates and test scores.
Among the traditional high schools, Edmonds Woodway High School leads in academic ranking and science proficiency, while Meadowdale High School and Mountlake Terrace High School boast the district's highest graduation rates. However, math scores are a relative weakness district-wide, with only Edmonds Woodway and Mountlake Terrace exceeding the state average. Lynnwood High School and Meadowdale have shown recent declines in their statewide rankings, which may be an area for families to investigate.
The alternative schools serve distinct student needs: Edmonds eLearning Academy showed dramatic ranking improvement, Edmonds Career Access Program has a very low graduation rate reflecting its specialized mission, and Scriber Lake High School operates with significantly higher per-student funding and a very low student-teacher ratio. Overall, the Edmonds School District offers a range of strong options, with the comprehensive schools generally performing well but with notable variations in specific strengths like graduation rates and math proficiency.
