Summary

Kenmore Middle School serves about 733 students in grades 6–8 in Kenmore, Washington, near several other middle schools and within the strong Northshore School District. The school ranks 84th of 514 Washington middle schools, placing it in the 84th percentile, and holds a four-star rating. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 20.4 to 1, and 26.47% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch.

Kenmore performs well above Washington averages, with 2025–2026 proficiency rates of 64.17% in English language arts, 54.10% in math, and 63.60% in science. However, it trails the district averages by about 8 to 12 percentage points, reflecting the unusually strong performance of the Northshore district. Among nearby Northshore schools, Kenmore is close to Canyon Park Middle School but behind Skyview Middle School and Northshore Middle School. Skyview is especially ahead in math and science. Kenmore is also very similar academically to Brier Terrace Middle School, although the schools serve different grade configurations.

The school’s most encouraging trend is steady improvement: math proficiency rose from 45.88% in 2022–2023 to 54.10% in 2025–2026, while science also gained more than eight points. Kenmore’s statewide rank improved from the 76th percentile to the 84th percentile over that period. The clearest academic concern is eighth-grade math, at 46.93%, well below sixth- and seventh-grade results. English language learner outcomes, ranked at the 55th percentile, are another potential focus. For context, nearby Jane Addams Middle School currently outperforms Kenmore in all three subjects. Environmental & Adventure School has state-suppressed current results, so those figures are unknown rather than zero and are not directly comparable.
