Summary

Greenwood Elementary School is a top-performing public elementary school (PK-5) serving 339 students in Seattle's Greenwood neighborhood, consistently ranking among the very best in Washington state.

The school stands out for its exceptional and steady academic results, recently ranking 32nd out of over 1,100 elementary schools statewide. Students achieve very high proficiency rates, particularly in science (over 90%), and the school is effective in supporting various student groups. Compared to nearby schools like West Woodland Elementary School and Whittier Elementary School, Greenwood maintains remarkable consistency in its high rankings year after year. It achieves these top-tier outcomes with moderate per-student spending, operating very efficiently within the Seattle School District No. 1.

While Greenwood excels overall, it shares a common challenge with neighboring schools like West Woodland Elementary School and Loyal Heights Elementary School where 5th-grade math scores tend to dip. The school is part of a high-achieving cluster in north Seattle, though performance can vary between schools in close proximity, such as Green Lake Elementary School and Viewlands Elementary School. It's important to note that the specialized Cascadia Elementary is an outlier with unique programming.
