Summary:

Snohomish School District covers 17 schools — 9 elementary, 2 middle, 4 high, and 2 alternative — serving students from kindergarten through high school in the Snohomish, Washington area. The district ranks 40th of 238 Washington districts, in the 83rd percentile with a 4-star rating, and its 2025–2026 proficiency rates beat the state in all three tested subjects: 62.38% in ELA versus 52.81%, 52.80% in math versus 43.11%, and 59.88% in science versus 50.95%.

The strongest schools stand out clearly. Totem Falls is the top elementary, ranking 64th of 1,138 with 5 stars and posting 82.16% ELA, 77.83% math, and 78.26% science. Little Cedars Elementary School (5 stars) and Seattle Hill Elementary are close behind, and Seattle Hill leads all schools in science at 80.00%. Among high schools, Glacier Peak High School ranks 45th of 396 with 84.52% ELA, a 95.5% graduation rate, and a 1.4% dropout rate, while Snohomish High School is stronger in science (67.84%) but weaker in math (36.31%). Valley View Middle School outpaces Centennial Middle School by roughly 15 to 19 points in every subject.

Results vary widely within the district. Central Emerson Elementary sits in the 40th percentile, about 36 points behind Totem Falls in ELA, despite having the district's highest per-student spending at $23,933 — so spending alone does not predict outcomes. Math is the recurring weak spot at Snohomish High, Cascade View Elementary, Central Emerson, and AIM High School (25.00%). Many schools are improving: rank percentile rose for Totem Falls, Little Cedars, Valley View, Seattle Hill, Dutch Hill, Glacier Peak, Centennial, Riverview, and AIM High. Some scores, especially at alternative schools, are suppressed by the state and should be read as unknown rather than as poor performance.
