Summary:

This analysis covers five public schools in zip code 98203, part of Everett, Washington, serving grades K-12 within the highly-rated Everett School District.

Among these schools, View Ridge Elementary stands out as the top performer, with strong test scores in math and especially science, while Madison Elementary faces significant academic challenges despite receiving the highest per-student funding. Lowell Elementary shows promising improvement, and Evergreen Middle School is an area for concern as it has the lowest rankings and serves as a potential bottleneck in the educational pipeline.

The sole high school, Cascade High School, presents a notable contrast with an exceptionally high graduation rate but concerningly low math proficiency. Overall, science is a relative strength across the schools, but performance varies widely within the district, indicating that school-level practices significantly impact outcomes beyond broader district quality.
