Summary:
Zip code 98028 has five public schools serving prekindergarten through 12th grade: three elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school, all part of the highly rated Northshore School District. Together, they enroll about 3,481 students, and the area generally offers stronger academic results than Washington overall. The district ranks among the top 5% statewide, although performance varies considerably among the individual schools.
Inglemoor High School is the clearest overall standout, ranking 10th among Washington high schools. It has a 95.2% graduation rate, a 2.0% dropout rate, and especially strong English language arts and science results. Among elementary schools, Moorlands Elementary is the strongest overall, ranking 83rd statewide and exceeding district averages in English, math, and science. Its science proficiency is particularly impressive at 86.79%. Arrowhead Elementary also performs well, ranking in the 87th statewide percentile, with especially strong fourth- and fifth-grade results, though its scores declined modestly in the latest year.
Kenmore Elementary and Kenmore Middle School remain above Washington averages but trail the district in all three tested subjects. Kenmore Elementary has made the largest statewide ranking improvement over three years, while Kenmore Middle has steadily improved but shows a notable weakness in eighth-grade math. Math is the most consistent area for improvement across the ZIP code, whereas English language arts and science are generally stronger. For families comparing schools, Inglemoor and Moorlands offer the strongest overall academic profiles; Arrowhead is a solid option with uneven recent trends, and the Kenmore schools show encouraging progress alongside larger opportunities to close gaps within the district.
