Northshore School District

The Northshore School District is home to 35 schools, including 21 elementary schools, 6 middle schools, 6 high schools, and 2 alternative schools, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. This highly-ranked district, rated 5 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, is known for its exceptional academic performance and diverse student population.

Several standout schools emerge from the data, including Sunrise Elementary, which ranks 8th out of 1,169 Washington elementary schools, and Innovation Lab High School, which ranks 16th out of 442 Washington high schools. Other high-performing schools include Timbercrest Middle School and North Creek High School, which boasts a 96.6% four-year graduation rate.

While the district as a whole excels, there is notable variation in academic achievement across individual schools. Schools with higher poverty rates, such as Kenmore Elementary and Woodmoor Elementary, tend to have lower proficiency rates on standardized tests. However, the district's alternative schools, Northshore Networks and Secondary Academy for Success, demonstrate strong academic performance despite serving more at-risk student populations.
