Summary

Stillaguamish Valley Learning Center is a small public school in Arlington, Washington, serving 181 students in grades K–8 as part of the Arlington School District. The school ranks 477th out of 1,138 Washington schools, placing it in the 58th percentile with a three-star rating. About 25.97% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a smaller share than at several nearby Arlington schools. Because Stillaguamish serves through eighth grade while most nearby comparison schools serve K–5, direct comparisons should be interpreted carefully.

Academically, the school’s biggest concern is math. In 2025–26, proficiency was 45.95% in English language arts, 32.89% in math, and 51.61% in science. Math performance was especially low in seventh grade, at 16.67%, and eighth grade, at 25.00%. Science is the strongest recent bright spot: its rate rose from 37.74% to 51.61% in one year, slightly exceeding the statewide rate. Stillaguamish trails nearby Presidents Elementary and Kent Prairie Elementary in overall ranking and test results, is nearly tied with Pioneer Elementary, and ranks ahead of Eagle Creek Elementary in statewide ranking.

The overall trend is encouraging. ELA and math have improved from recent lows, while the school’s ranking rose from the 42nd percentile in 2023–24 to the 58th percentile in the two most recent years. Sixth-grade ELA and math are relative strengths, and eighth-grade ELA is also comparatively solid. The school’s low-income student subgroup ranks in the 78th percentile statewide, suggesting strong effectiveness with economically disadvantaged students. Families should also consider the school’s unusual operating profile: its 20.1-to-1 student-teacher ratio is higher than nearby schools, and its reported per-student spending is substantially lower. Overall, Stillaguamish appears to be improving, with secondary-grade math and elementary ELA remaining the most important areas for growth.
