Summary

Westhill Elementary is a public PK–5 school in Bothell, Washington, serving 419 students in the Northshore School District in an area with several nearby elementary schools. The district ranks 12th out of 238 Washington districts and is in the 95th percentile statewide. Westhill ranks 147th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 87th percentile with four stars. That is a notable improvement from 283rd place and the 76th percentile the previous year.

Westhill’s academic results are well above Washington averages in every reported subject. In 2025–26, proficiency was 69.95% in English language arts, 65.63% in math, and 82.09% in science. Science is the school’s clearest strength: its result is more than 31 percentage points above the state and second only to nearby Moorlands Elementary. Math has improved steadily over four years and is now nearly equal to the district average. ELA also reached a four-year high, although it remains below the district overall. Fifth grade is a relative bright spot, particularly in ELA and science, while third-grade ELA and math show the largest gaps compared with district results.

Among nearby schools, Westhill is a strong performer but not the local leader. Moorlands Elementary and Lockwood Elementary rank higher statewide, while Westhill is essentially tied with Arrowhead Elementary and ranks above Frank Love Elementary, Shelton View Elementary, and several others. Its 15.2-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio is favorable compared with most nearby schools. Parents may especially want to note Westhill’s strong current science performance, improving math, and the opportunity to strengthen early-grade ELA and sustain consistent science results.
