Summary

Sunnyside Elementary is a public K–6 school serving 452 students in Marysville, Washington, as part of the Marysville School District. The district ranks at the 29th percentile statewide, while Sunnyside ranks at the 42nd percentile among Washington elementary schools, earning two stars. The school is a relatively strong performer within Marysville, though its results remain mixed compared with state averages and nearby schools in higher-ranked districts.

In 2025–26, Sunnyside’s proficiency rates were 43.97% in English Language Arts, 38.03% in math, and 53.33% in science. The school exceeded the district average in all three subjects and was above the state average in science. Science is Sunnyside’s clearest strength: it led the six nearby Marysville schools and outperformed the district by 17.0 percentage points. Sunnyside ranked second locally in both ELA and math, behind Grove Elementary. However, performance has weakened since 2023–24, especially in math, which fell from 51.68% to 38.03%. Fourth-grade math is the most urgent concern, with just 21.13% of students proficient, compared with 49.54% statewide.

Comparisons with nearby Lake Stevens School District schools show a substantial performance gap, although that district ranks at the 92nd percentile statewide and serves a different community context. For example, Stevens Creek Elementary reported 74.53% ELA and 73.05% math proficiency, while Sunnycrest Elementary School posted 54.14% ELA and 55.14% math. Sunnyside’s strongest improvement opportunities are math recovery, especially in fourth grade, maintaining its science success, and strengthening support for English learners, students from low-income households, and groups with lower effectiveness rankings.
