Summary:

ZIP code 98233 includes two public schools in the Burlington-Edison School District: Burlington Edison High School, serving grades 9–12, and Bay View Elementary, serving kindergarten through fifth grade, with 1,465 students combined.

Burlington Edison High School has the stronger overall profile in the latest data, ranking in the 42nd percentile compared with Bay View Elementary in the 23rd percentile. The high school stands out in science, where 60.91% of students were proficient—above the statewide rate—and its 85.8% graduation rate also exceeded the state. Its ELA performance was better than the district’s, but math was a serious weakness: only 16.03% of students were proficient, and results fell sharply from the previous year. Families considering the high school may want to ask about math support, course recovery, and programs designed to keep students engaged, especially since the dropout rate was slightly above the state average.

Bay View Elementary compares favorably with the district in math, with 32.8% proficiency, but its ELA and science results were below statewide levels. Third-grade math was its strongest grade-subject result at 44.3%, while fifth-grade math fell to 22.22%, making upper-elementary math an important area to investigate. Bay View’s ranking has also declined steadily over three years, unlike the high school’s more mixed trend. Both schools serve similar economic populations and have relatively moderate student–teacher ratios, but their needs differ: the high school’s priority is secondary math, while Bay View may need broader support in reading and science along with focused fifth-grade math intervention.
