Summary

Evergreen Heights Elementary is a public elementary school serving about 460 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in the Auburn School District, currently rated as an average-performing school in the state.

The school stands out in its area for its solid academic results, particularly in math where it exceeds the state average and outperforms all nearby schools. While many surrounding schools in the Federal Way School District and some in Auburn rank in the bottom tier, Evergreen Heights consistently performs in the middle range. For example, it achieves higher test scores than Washington Elementary School and significantly outperforms Dick Scobee Elementary School, despite serving a student population with a similar level of economic need. This suggests the school is doing more with its resources, as it spends less per student than many neighboring schools like Camelot Elementary School or Wildwood Elementary School.

Parents should note that performance varies significantly by grade level; fourth graders excel, especially in math, while fifth-grade scores drop considerably, indicating an area the school is likely focused on improving. After some historical ups and downs in its state ranking, the school has recently stabilized its performance. For families in the region, Evergreen Heights represents a stable, mid-performing option that delivers stronger academic outcomes than most other elementary schools in the immediate vicinity.
