Best Public Schools in Zip Code 98390

Summary:

Zip code 98390 in the Sumner/Bonney Lake area is served by 9 public schools within the highly-rated Sumner-Bonney Lake School District, including one high school, two middle schools, and six elementary schools, all of which consistently outperform Washington state averages in core subjects.

Among the standout schools, Bonney Lake Elementary is the only one with a 5-star rating, excelling particularly in science and math, while Sumner High School boasts an impressive 92.8% graduation rate. Parents will find strong elementary performance across the board, with Maple Lawn Elementary and Emerald Hills Elementary also ranking in the 89th percentile, and notable improvement at schools like Liberty Ridge Elementary.

While the district is strong overall, a key finding is a significant dip in math and science proficiency at the high school level compared to the lower grades, which is an area the district may be examining. Resources vary, with Crestwood Elementary having the highest per-student spending and smallest class sizes, though this doesn't always directly correlate with the highest test scores, indicating other factors are also at play in student success.
