Summary

Cedarhome Elementary School is a K–5 public school in Stanwood, Washington, serving 433 students in the Stanwood-Camano School District, with nearby schools including Twin City Elementary and Stanwood Elementary School. Cedarhome ranks 355th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it around the 69th statewide percentile. That is a solid position and reflects improvement from the pandemic-era low of the 53rd percentile in 2020–2021, although the school has not yet returned to its 80th- to 90th-percentile performance from 2016–2019.

Academically, Cedarhome performs above both district and state averages in every tested subject. In 2025–2026, proficiency was 56.48% in English language arts, 53.49% in math, and 60.56% in science. Math and science are the clearest strengths: Cedarhome exceeded the state by 10.38 points in math and 9.61 points in science. Science has shown the strongest recent improvement, rising from 48.91% in 2022–2023 to 60.56%. However, math results vary considerably by grade. Third-grade math proficiency was 60.94%, compared with 51.25% in fourth grade and 49.30% in fifth grade, making upper-elementary math an important area to watch.

Cedarhome is competitive locally but trails Twin City Elementary, which ranks at the 76th percentile and has stronger math and science results. Cedarhome is essentially level with Stanwood Elementary School, while it outperforms Utsalady Elementary and Elger Bay Elementary overall. The student-teacher ratio improved to 15.2, and results for low-income students and Hispanic students have been comparatively strong. Special education outcomes have improved substantially but remain Cedarhome’s clearest subgroup challenge. Overall, the school appears solid and improving, with particular opportunities in upper-grade math, special education support, and closing the gap with Twin City.

Open Quote First day of school for my second grader and was surprised in that all of the students were greeted with all of the teachers outside clapping along with great welcoming music not to mention a red carpet for the kids to come across. Wow that was pretty cool! So far so good! Nothing but a flawless experience so far. The next day the cross walk guard asked if my son was new and I said yes and his name ! She new exactly what grade and what class and that he was new ! Another wow! The largest elementary school
In the district and well done welcoming the kids back to school on there first day! Close Quote
