Summary

Shelton View Elementary is a PK–5 school in Bothell serving 513 students in the high-performing Northshore School District. The school is less than a mile from Frank Love Elementary and near several other Northshore and Edmonds schools, making it part of a competitive local elementary-school market.

Shelton View’s strongest current subject is English Language Arts (ELA): 78.15% of students were proficient in 2025–26, the highest result among nearby Northshore schools and 4.42 points above the district average. Its math proficiency was 67.23%, slightly above the district average and well above the state average, although it trailed nearby Lockwood Elementary at 71.86%. Science is the clearest weakness, with 60.49% proficiency—11.43 points below the district average and below most nearby Northshore schools. Fourth-grade ELA was especially strong at 85.53%, while fifth grade needs attention: ELA proficiency was 67.90%, math was 46.91%, and science was 60.49%. The fourth-grade math result was suppressed by the state and is unknown.

Overall, Shelton View remains a strong Washington school, ranking in the 81st percentile statewide in 2025–26, but its rank fell from the 93rd percentile the prior year. Math declined from 77.78% to 67.23%, and science fell from 76.84% to 60.49%, while ELA improved. Nearby Westhill Elementary and Lockwood ranked higher statewide, while Shelton View remained ahead of several local schools, including Maywood Hills Elementary, Kenmore Elementary, and Crystal Springs Elementary. Its 96th-percentile effectiveness ranking for English language learners is a notable strength. The school also reports relatively low spending per student and a somewhat high student-teacher ratio, making its strong literacy results particularly notable while raising questions about resources for improving fifth-grade math and science.

Open Quote This school is overcrowded and getting worse quickly, with all of the rapid development happening in the area without consideration of class sizes or crowded schools. 26 kids is the norm for the 2nd grade classes this year (including ELL, IEP, etc kids) and there are no classroom aides. The quality of teaching suffers accordingly, but in general I am impressed with what I've seen of the education here. The BEST thing that they do, in my opinion, is a grade-wide small group reading/writing section every single day - 12 or so kids per group, divided on skill level - they pull in extra resources to make it happen and it is fantastic. It happens in 1st-4th grades. Overall not a bad choice at all, but the school grounds are built to be a 400 student school and it would be nice if it could in fact be that. Close Quote
