Summary

View Ridge Elementary is a PK–5 school serving 497 students in Everett, Washington, at 202 Alder St., within the Everett School District. The district ranks 37th out of 238 Washington districts and has a 4-star rating, while View Ridge ranks in the 69th statewide percentile and has a 3-star rating. This makes it a solidly above-average Washington elementary school and one of the stronger schools in its local area, although it does not rank as highly as the district overall.

View Ridge’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates were 58.48% in English Language Arts, 53.26% in math, and 57.32% in science—above Washington averages in every subject, but below district averages. Among nearby Everett schools, Jefferson Elementary is the strongest direct comparison, ranking in the 77th percentile and outperforming View Ridge in all three subjects, especially science. View Ridge nevertheless ranks above Jackson Elementary School, Lowell Elementary, Garfield Elementary School, Madison Elementary, and Emerson Elementary School. Mukilteo Elementary is a nearby high-performing outlier, ranking in the 93rd percentile and posting proficiency rates above 72% in every tested subject.

The clearest academic priority is fourth grade: math proficiency was 45.36%, compared with 60.82% in third grade and 53.66% in fifth grade, while fourth-grade ELA was also the school’s lowest. Science has declined from 70.73% in 2023–2024 to 57.32% currently, and math has gradually weakened, while ELA has shown some recovery. View Ridge’s recent special education subgroup result was a notable strength, ranking in the 97th percentile, but English language learner effectiveness ranked in the 34th percentile. The school also reported a relatively high 17.4-to-1 student-teacher ratio, up from 14.9 the prior year. Overall, View Ridge appears strongest in its local context, with the greatest opportunity in fourth-grade math, science, and support for English language learners.
