Summary

Everett High School is a large traditional public high school in Everett, Washington, serving grades 9–12 and 1,643 students in an urban area of the Puget Sound region. It is part of the Everett School District, which ranks in the 84th percentile among Washington districts. The school has a 21:1 student-teacher ratio, and about six in ten students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Its 2025–2026 overall ranking places it in the 59th percentile statewide, indicating a generally stable school with both notable strengths and clear academic challenges.

Completion outcomes are among Everett’s strongest features. The four-year graduation rate was 94.2% in 2024–2025, well above Washington’s 82.6% statewide rate, while the dropout rate was 2.5%, far below the state’s 9.8%. Graduation has improved steadily since 2021–2022. Academic results are more uneven: ELA proficiency was 61.92% in 2025–2026, above the state’s 52.81% but slightly below the district’s 65.49%. Math is the largest concern, with only 29.95% of students proficient, compared with 57.23% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Science proficiency was 49.44%, close to the state rate but below the district, and declined notably from the previous year.

The most useful nearby comparison is Cascade High School, a similarly sized comprehensive school in the same district. Their latest test results are nearly identical, although Cascade has somewhat higher graduation and slightly lower dropout rates. Everett also compares favorably on completion outcomes with smaller alternative and reengagement programs such as Everett Reengagement Academy and Heritage School, though those schools serve different student populations and are not direct peers. Overall, Everett appears stable and effective at helping students graduate, while its key improvement priorities are mathematics, science consistency, and support for English learners and students receiving special education services.
