Summary

Silverdale Elementary is a public elementary school serving about 413 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in the Central Kitsap School District, consistently performing as a solid, above-average school in the state.

The school has particular strengths in mathematics and science, where its students outperform both the district and state averages, and it does this while spending less per student than several neighboring schools like Esquire Hills Elementary and Cottonwood Elementary School. Its academic performance has been more stable over time compared to some area schools, and it has shown notable effectiveness in supporting specific groups of students, such as those in special education programs.
