Summary

Sherwood Elementary is a well-regarded public school serving 491 students in grades K-6 within the Edmonds School District, consistently earning a 4-star rating and showing impressive academic improvement in recent years.

Academically, Sherwood stands out for its strong performance, particularly in math and science, where it outperforms both the district and state averages and many nearby schools like Seaview Elementary and Madrona K-8 School. While not the absolute top performer in the area—schools like Maplewood Parent Coop and Melvin G Syre Elementary in the Shoreline School District rank higher—Sherwood delivers excellent and balanced results across different student groups. It has also shown remarkable recent progress in supporting special education students, a key strength compared to some neighboring schools.

What makes Sherwood particularly noteworthy is its ability to achieve these strong outcomes efficiently, with per-student spending lower than schools like Chase Lake Elementary or Edmonds Elementary. The school represents a model of consistent, well-rounded excellence, effectively serving its community and maintaining a clear upward trajectory in a region with several high-performing options.
