Summary:

The Tahoma School District is a highly-ranked system of nine public schools serving about 9,200 students from Maple Valley, Covington, and Ravensdale, spanning from elementary through high school.

Overall, this is an exceptional district where every school performs above state averages. Cedar River Elementary and Summit Trail Middle School are the top performers in their categories, while Shadow Lake Elementary, though still a good school, faces more challenges and has the district's lowest test scores. The two middle schools show a noticeable performance gap, with Summit Trail Middle outperforming Maple View Middle in all subjects.

Key areas for parents to note include math, where Tahoma Senior High School's proficiency is below the district average despite a stellar 93.4% graduation rate, and a dip in 5th-grade math scores seen across the elementary schools. Science scores also vary widely between elementary schools. Interestingly, higher per-student funding and smaller class sizes at Shadow Lake Elementary have not yet closed its achievement gap with schools like Cedar River Elementary.
