Medical Lake School District

Summary:

The Medical Lake School District is a highly-rated, four-school district in Washington serving about 1,800 students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, with all schools earning 3 or 4 stars and the district ranking in the top 16% statewide.

Among the schools, Medical Lake High School stands out as the district's top performer, boasting an exceptional 96% graduation rate and the strongest English Language Arts scores, while Michael Anderson Elementary School excels in science and has the smallest class sizes. The two elementary schools serve different communities; Hallett Elementary School serves a higher-need population and maintains solid performance, whereas Michael Anderson Elementary, located on Fairchild AFB, serves many military families and shows particular strength in science.

Overall, the district consistently outperforms state averages in reading, math, and science. While the high school shows remarkable success, Medical Lake Middle School shows a slight dip in science scores compared to the elementary levels, which may be an area for focus. Parents can expect small class sizes across all schools and strong academic outcomes, especially at the high school level where student achievement is particularly high.
