Best Public Schools in Zip Code 99011

Summary:

Zip code 99011 contains one school, Michael Anderson Elementary School, a Pre-K through 5th grade school located on Fairchild Air Force Base within the highly-rated Medical Lake School District.

Michael Anderson Elementary stands out for its exceptional science program, where fifth graders achieve a 76% proficiency rate, significantly outperforming both district and state averages. The school also shows consistent strength in math across most grades. It benefits from favorable conditions like a low student-teacher ratio and above-average per-student funding. However, performance in third-grade English and math lags behind state averages, indicating an area for potential focus, and the school's overall state ranking has seen a slight decline in recent years.

Overall, this school serves its unique military community with solid academic results, particularly in upper-grade science and math. Parents can expect their children to be part of a well-resourced school in a top-performing district, with notable academic strengths, though early-grade performance is an area to watch. The transient nature of a military base population is an important contextual factor for understanding year-to-year changes.
