Summary

Redmond Middle School is a consistently top-performing public school serving about 1,000 students in grades 6-8 within the highly-regarded Lake Washington School District in Redmond, Washington.

The school earns a 5-star rating and ranks in the top 5% of all Washington middle schools, with students significantly outperforming state averages in English, Math, and Science. A key strength is its balanced and consistent performance across all grade levels; for example, unlike some nearby schools like Kirkland Middle School, Redmond Middle's math scores actually improve from 6th to 8th grade. It also serves a more economically diverse student population than some of the highest-ranked schools in the area, such as Timberline Middle School or Stella Schola, while maintaining strong academic outcomes.

Interesting comparisons show that being in a high-performing district makes a major difference; Highland Middle School, just a few miles away in the Bellevue School District, has much lower test scores despite higher per-student spending. The analysis also reveals that Redmond Middle, like many schools, faces the ongoing challenge of ensuring equally strong outcomes for all student subgroups. Overall, it stands out as a model of large-scale, stable excellence that has maintained its high quality for over a decade.

What people are saying

Saturday, July 28, 2018

Very poor quality school. As a student, I have experienced the extremely disappointing measures that teachers make to push their students. I am a Quest student, but I have taken many electives with general education students. I am stunned by the negative environment they put up. Their education standards are very low and most focus on gossip rather than expanding their rather small sphere of knowledge. Quest does not do much in the curriculum to impress, either. However, the teachers actually push some truly gifted students with extra work and the environment is much more competitive for the right things, like better test scores on both fitness and academia. Be prepared to do some at home learning if you attend this school. Close Quote
