The main area to watch is fifth grade. Third-grade ELA and math were clear strengths, but fifth-grade ELA, math, and science all trailed district results. Science has also varied considerably from year to year, so continued improvement will depend on making recent gains more consistent.

Overall, Silverdale Elementary offers above-average achievement, especially in math, with typical local staffing and spending and a good position among nearby schools.
