Summary

Sherwood Elementary is a K–6 school in Edmonds, WA, serving 491 students in the Edmonds School District in a neighborhood with several nearby elementary and K–8 options. The school ranks in the 86th percentile among Washington elementary schools and has four stars, making it one of the stronger neighborhood schools in the area. Its statewide standing has improved steadily, from the 67th percentile in 2020–21 to the 86th percentile in 2025–26.

Academic results are a major strength, especially in science and math. In 2025–26, 66.04% of students were proficient in English language arts, 66.17% in math, and 79.69% in science—well above district and state averages. Science was the school’s clearest advantage and the strongest result among nearby schools with reported scores, exceeding Seaview Elementary and Madrona K-8 School. Sherwood’s math performance was close to Seaview’s and stronger than Madrona’s, Westgate Elementary’s, and Lynndale Elementary’s. The main grade-level area to watch is fourth-grade ELA, at 58.02%, while third-grade math was particularly strong at 75%.

The school’s 22.81% free/reduced-price lunch rate is lower than at Westgate, Lynndale, Chase Lake Elementary, and College Place Elementary, but higher than at Edmonds Elementary and Maplewood Parent Coop. Sherwood’s 16.8-to-1 student-teacher ratio and $18,869 per-student spending are moderate locally, suggesting that strong outcomes are not simply tied to having the highest staffing or spending levels. Parents may also want to monitor the lower-SES subgroup, which ranks at the 59th percentile compared with the school’s overall 86th percentile. Overall, Sherwood combines strong current performance with encouraging momentum, particularly in science and math.
