Summary

Maple Hills Elementary is a K–5 school in Renton serving 460 students in the Issaquah School District, a highly rated district in a suburban area with generally low economic-need enrollment compared with nearby schools. The district ranks 3rd out of 238 Washington districts, and Maple Hills ranks 131st out of 1,138 Washington schools for 2025–26, placing it in the 88th percentile statewide and earning a four-star rating. Its 13.04% free- or reduced-price-lunch rate is lower than that of most nearby comparison schools.

Academic performance remains a clear strength. Maple Hills scored 72.73% in ELA, 67.39% in math, and 75.00% in science, well above Washington averages of 52.81%, 43.11%, and 50.95%. However, the school currently trails its closest district peers, Apollo Elementary and Briarwood Elementary, especially in math. Its math result is also below Maplewood Heights Elementary School, although Maple Hills is stronger there in ELA and science. Compared with many nearby Kent and Tahoma schools, Maple Hills remains highly competitive, while Cedar River Elementary is a notable nearby school that outperforms it in all three subjects.

The clearest improvement priority is fifth-grade math: 57.89% of students met the standard, compared with 72.73% in third grade and 71.43% in fourth grade. Math fell 5.83 points from the prior year, while science declined 5.90 points and ELA changed less. Maple Hills’ statewide rank has softened from the 93rd percentile in 2023–24 to the 88th percentile currently, but its long-term record remains strong. Parents may also want to ask how the school supports special education students and monitors outcomes for multiracial students, whose recent subgroup effectiveness rankings were lower than the school’s overall standing. The student-teacher ratio is a competitive 15.8-to-1, and spending is middle-of-the-range among nearby schools.

I have two kids in this elementary school in the Issaquah School District and I love it! Great teachers, principal and staff. I have been involved with the PTA as well, and overall, there is a high level of parent involvement in the school, with many parent volunteers that basically manage and run many of the PTA programs that support the classroom instruction. We have also enjoyed the sense of community at the school and the evening activities and events, where you get to see the kids and other parents. Highly recommend this elementary school! Close Quote
