Summary

Woodside Elementary in Bothell, WA, serves 581 students in prekindergarten through fifth grade and is part of the Everett School District. Located in a highly competitive area with several nearby schools from the Everett, Northshore, and Edmonds districts, Woodside is a strong statewide performer: it has a 4-star rating, ranks in the 81st percentile among Washington elementary schools, and has improved from the 71st percentile in 2021–22. Its 17:1 student-teacher ratio and economically mixed enrollment provide useful context when comparing it with nearby schools.

Woodside’s latest proficiency rates are 65.49% in English Language Arts, 63.24% in math, and 68.27% in science. Those results are well above state rates, especially in math and science, and math is 6.01 percentage points above the district average. Science has also improved substantially over time, rising from 56.98% in 2022–23 to the upper 60s in each of the last three years. However, Woodside trails the area’s highest-performing schools. Cedar Wood Elementary and Tambark Creek Elementary School rank in the 100th and 99th percentiles, respectively, while Forest View Elementary School and Mill Creek Elementary also outperform Woodside by substantial margins. Woodside is more competitive with Penny Creek Elementary and Hilltop Elementary.

The clearest improvement opportunity is fifth-grade math, where proficiency falls to 50.96%—9.96 points below the district rate—despite stronger third- and fourth-grade results. Families may also want to note that Woodside’s strongest comparative results are for low-income students, English Language Learners, and Hispanic students, with effectiveness rankings at the 94th, 91st, and 90th percentiles, respectively. Overall, Woodside offers solid academics and particularly strong support for several student groups. It is stronger than nearby Silver Lake Elementary and Martha Lake Elementary, but families seeking the area’s highest test performance may compare it with Cedar Wood, Tambark Creek, Forest View, and Mill Creek.

Open Quote This school allows bullying. A couple of weeks ago, my oldest daughter was bullied by one of the para-educators, and this school did nothing to resolve the issue at hand. In fact, they let the para-educator walk away without any repercussions given her poor behavior.
This person belittled, yelled at, shamed, forcefully yanked the backpack from daughter, talked down to by talking in baby voice, etc....and nothing. I am disgusted. I talked to the principal and she told me my daughter is too sensitive, same with the councilor. I talked with the Executive Director and he told me he refused to take action. I am appalled that they would act in such a manner. Bullying should not be tolerated. However, this school does tolerate.

Last year, for instance. My youngest daughter was being bullied. I received an email from her teacher in telling me that children bully and my daughter needs to learn to accept it. I still have the email.

Disgusting. Close Quote

Open Quote my daughter attends woodside, this is the worst school she has ever attended. the teachers are vindictive and the allow bullying to go on in the school. my daughters teacher has ridiculed her in class in front of all the students which cause them to make fun of her. I have had parents call my cell while I was at work asking me if my daughter is ok. this year my daughter got beat up at school, when we turned it in. the counselor told my child to quit being a victim and the school district would not do anything. when I tried to pull her out, the school said if I removed my child they would have to call CPS on me because I do not care about her education. please before enrolling your child in this school think twice especially if you have a child with any special needs. they don’t follow 504 plans. the principle is a dictator which I have seen a kindergartener running out of the school and she was yelling and cursing at him and then grabbed him by the arm. when I turned this into the Everett school district they said I was exaggerating. we are moving out of Everett School district to get her away from the school. They like the Extra money they get for special need children and do not want to lose that money Close Quote
