Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98077

Summary:

Zip code 98077 in Woodinville, WA, is served by five public schools—three elementary, one middle, and one K-12 alternative program—across two top-ranked districts, Northshore School District and Lake Washington School District, with a total enrollment of over 2,000 students.

The area features several consistently high-performing schools, including Timbercrest Middle School, which is the largest and has maintained a top state ranking, and Laura Ingalls Wilder Elementary, which has the highest ELA proficiency and is part of the higher-performing Lake Washington district. East Ridge Elementary also excels, particularly in science. In contrast, Cottage Lake Elementary has the highest per-student spending and smallest classes but lower test scores than its peers, showing that resources alone don't guarantee the highest outcomes.

Notably, Northshore Learning Options, the alternative K-12 school, serves a different student population with significantly lower graduation and proficiency rates compared to district averages, highlighting a performance gap within the same community. Overall, parents in this zip code can expect access to strong traditional schools, though outcomes vary between the two districts and between traditional and alternative education models.
