Summary:

Schools in ZIP code 98372 include eight schools serving about 3,477 students across elementary, middle, and high school grades. Most are part of the Puyallup School District, while Hedden Elementary School belongs to the Fife School District. School performance varies considerably within the area. Among schools with reported results, average proficiency was about 54% in English language arts, 50% in math, and 56% in science.

The strongest overall elementary schools are Shaw Road Elementary and Spinning Elementary. Shaw Road ranked in the 83rd statewide percentile and led the area in English language arts and math, with 65.38% and 62.74% proficiency. Spinning ranked in the 80th percentile and showed the strongest recent ranking improvement, while also posting excellent results in all three subjects. For middle school, Kalles Junior High was the clear leader, ranking in the 80th percentile and outperforming district averages in English language arts, math, and science. Its English language arts performance was particularly strong, although eighth-grade math was a relative weakness.

The remaining schools have more mixed profiles. Edgemont Junior High had excellent science performance but considerably weaker math results. Mt View Elementary showed the opposite pattern, with math as a relative strength and English language arts as a concern. Stewart Elementary had the lowest overall results, especially in sixth-grade math and across science. The small E B Walker High School serves grades 8–12; its test results were suppressed, but its 80% graduation rate was below both district and state rates. Family comparisons should consider subject-specific trends, grade-level results, and the important differences between schools.
