Summary

Silver Lake Elementary is a PK–5 school in Everett, Washington, serving about 550 students in an area near several other Everett schools. It is part of the Everett School District, which ranks in the 84th percentile statewide. Silver Lake ranks in the 67th percentile among Washington elementary schools, placing it in the upper third statewide. Its 71.45% free- or reduced-price lunch rate indicates a comparatively high-need student population, while its 15.8 student-teacher ratio improved notably from recent years.

Academic results are mixed. Math is a relative strength: 57.51% of students reached proficiency, essentially matching the district and exceeding the state’s 43.11%. Science proficiency was 59.15%, also above the state average. English Language Arts is the clearest challenge, at 52.36%—nearly the state average but more than 13 points below the district. Silver Lake had the lowest all-grade results among the nearby Everett schools listed, including Woodside Elementary, Mill Creek Elementary, Jefferson Elementary, Monroe Elementary, and Penny Creek Elementary. However, it performed substantially better than nearby Mukilteo School District schools such as Discovery Elementary, Olivia Park Elementary, Odyssey Elementary, and Lake Stickney Elementary School.

The school’s statewide ranking has improved from the 46th percentile in 2020–2021 to the 67th percentile in 2025–2026. Recent gains include ELA rising to 52.36% and math to 57.51%, although science edged down slightly. Third-grade math is a standout at 69.01%, but results fall to 53.26% in fourth grade and 51.43% in fifth grade. Silver Lake’s strongest broader finding is its effectiveness in serving students from low-income households, English learners, and students receiving special education services. For families comparing options, the main questions are how the school is strengthening upper-grade math and literacy while preserving these supports for students with greater educational needs.
