Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98087

Summary:

Zip code 98087 in Lynnwood, Washington, is served by a single public elementary school, Lake Stickney Elementary School, which educates students from kindergarten through 5th grade.

Lake Stickney Elementary is a large school with over 600 students and faces significant academic challenges, performing below both the Mukilteo School District and Washington state averages in English, math, and science. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, and it currently holds a 1-star rating. A notable concern is the sharp drop in math proficiency between 3rd and 5th grade, which is more pronounced than typical patterns.

Despite these academic struggles, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and receives per-student funding above the national average. It serves a community with high economic need, as nearly 60% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. As the only elementary school in this zip code, its performance is critically important for local families, highlighting an urgent need for targeted support, particularly in upper-grade math instruction.
