Summary

Interlake Senior High School is a large, highly-ranked public high school serving about 1,611 students in grades 9-12 within the top-performing Bellevue School District.

The school stands out for achieving excellent academic results, particularly in math, while serving a more economically diverse student body than many other elite schools in the area, such as the International School or Nikola Tesla STEM High School. It consistently ranks in the top 5% of Washington high schools, with proficiency rates well above district and state averages. However, a significant and recent concern is a notable drop in its graduation rate to 79.5% for the 2024-2025 year, which is lower than both the district average and nearby schools like Eastlake High School.

Interlake operates in a region packed with high-performing schools, and it maintains its strong position with the highest per-student spending among traditional high schools in its district. While the school excels overall, it faces a persistent challenge in supporting consistent academic outcomes for all student subgroups. The recent volatility in graduation and dropout rates is a notable departure from its historical trends and warrants attention from the school community.
