Summary

Hazel Wolf K-8 is a well-regarded public school serving about 660 students from kindergarten through 8th grade in Seattle's Seattle School District No. 1, offering a continuous K-8 model that is less common than the standard elementary structure.

Academically, the school is strong, consistently outperforming state averages in English, math, and science, though its statewide ranking has seen a slight dip in recent years from its historical top performance. The school operates efficiently, achieving these solid results with a per-student spending of $20,873, which is notably lower than several nearby schools like James Baldwin Elementary School and Broadview-Thomson K-8 School that have higher expenditures. Compared to the highest-performing schools in the area, such as Cascadia Elementary and Wedgwood Elementary School, Hazel Wolf maintains strong outcomes with a more economically diverse student population.

An interesting pattern at Hazel Wolf and the other K-8 school, Broadview-Thomson K-8 School, is a dip in test scores in the 8th grade, suggesting a common challenge for the K-8 model in maintaining academic momentum through the middle school years. The school shows remarkable year-to-year improvement for some student groups, while others, like Asian students and boys, present ongoing opportunities for growth. Overall, Hazel Wolf K-8 represents a strong and efficient educational option that balances academic achievement with diversity.
