Summary

Centennial Middle School is a public school in Snohomish, Washington, serving 734 students in grades 7–8 within the Snohomish School District. The district ranks in the 83rd percentile statewide, while Centennial ranks 210th out of 514 Washington middle schools, placing it in the 59th percentile with a 3-star rating. The school has a moderate economic-need profile, with 28.2% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price meals.

Centennial has made encouraging recent progress: its ranking rose from the 49th percentile in 2024–25 to the 59th percentile in 2025–26, and proficiency improved in English language arts, math, and science. However, results remain below the district average in all three subjects. About 50.88% of students met standards in ELA, 40.49% in math, and 46.52% in science. Math is the clearest academic priority. Seventh-grade results trail state averages in ELA and math, while eighth-grade students perform at or above state averages in both subjects, suggesting that the school could examine what is working particularly well in eighth grade and apply those strategies earlier.

Families comparing schools should know that Centennial is substantially behind its same-district peer, Valley View Middle School, which has proficiency rates of 69.62% in ELA, 55.95% in math, and 61.52% in science. It also trails highly ranked Gateway Middle School, North Lake Middle School, and Lake Stevens Middle School. On the other hand, Centennial is broadly comparable with North Middle School and performs better than Evergreen Middle School. Its improving results, stronger eighth-grade performance, and large gains in special-education and low-socioeconomic-status effectiveness are positive signs, though continued focus on seventh-grade transition support, math, and science is warranted.
