Summary

West Woodland Elementary School is a public K–5 school in Seattle serving 355 students in Seattle School District No. 1, an urban district ranked 45th of 238 Washington districts. The school ranks #8 of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 99th percentile statewide with a 5-star rating. Its ranking has improved steadily, from #86 in 2020–21 to #8 in 2025–26, suggesting sustained progress rather than a single strong year.

West Woodland’s latest results are exceptional compared with both the district and nearby schools. In 2025–26, 89.77% of students were proficient in ELA, 88.14% in math, and 88.52% in science—the highest reported all-grade results among the nearby schools provided. These rates were 21.64, 27.90, and 23.51 percentage points above Seattle district averages, respectively. Math has been a particularly important area of improvement, rising 11.52 points since 2022–23; third-grade math reached 92%. West Woodland also exceeded nearby high performers such as Greenwood Elementary School and McDonald International School in the latest reported ELA, math, and science comparisons. Several grade-level results were suppressed to protect privacy and should be considered unknown, not zero.

The school’s strengths appear broad: recent subgroup rankings were especially strong for female and male students, and its special education subgroup ranked #2 of 432 schools statewide. West Woodland’s student-teacher ratio was 15.6:1 in 2024–25, favorable but not the lowest nearby, and spending was $22,206 per student—near the middle of the local range. Its free/reduced-price lunch rate was 8.45%, lower than at many comparison schools, so family economic context should be considered when comparing raw proficiency rates. Even with that qualification, West Woodland stands out as a high-performing, improving school with balanced achievement across subjects.
