Summary

Summit Public School: Atlas is a small public school in southwest Seattle serving 566 students in grades 6–12, with a four-star rating and a location near several Seattle and Highline-area schools.

Atlas has a strong overall record, ranking 96th of 396 Washington schools in 2025–26, at the 76th percentile. Its 94.0% graduation rate in 2024–25 was well above the Washington state rate of 82.6% and higher than nearby Highline High School, Evergreen High School, and Chief Sealth International High School. The school is smaller than most nearby comprehensive high schools and has a lower student-teacher ratio of 16.6, compared with 22.5 at West Seattle High School and 19.6 at Cleveland High School STEM.

The main caution is uneven academic performance across grades. In 2025–26, all-grade proficiency was 47.63% in English Language Arts, 39.58% in math, and 44.97% in science—slightly below state results. However, grade 10 was a clear strength: Atlas exceeded the state in both ELA and math, and its 50.91% grade 10 math proficiency was higher than Cleveland STEM’s 48.50% and Chief Sealth’s 28.00%. The weaker results are concentrated in grades 6–8, especially sixth- and eighth-grade math. Compared with nearby schools, Atlas generally outperformed Highline High School, Evergreen High School, and Interagency Programs, but trailed top performers such as West Seattle High School and Raisbeck Aviation High School. Overall, Atlas’s strongest features are graduation, student support, and upper-grade outcomes, while improving middle-grade achievement is the clearest priority.
