177regional schools in comparison set

Showing 66 focus-district schools. Regional rank uses the broader King, Snohomish, Kitsap, and Pierce county pull for the same level.

Methodology

The ordering uses one public, pre-aggregated OSPI field: SBAC ELA + Math combined, met standard (Levels 3-4), averaged across the available 3-year window. Ties share the same rank. Supporting columns are not folded into the rank.

No peer percentiles, trajectory slopes, competition rollups, PTA capacity, HCC pathway synthesis, or dossier text are used in the ordering.

Caveats

Middle-school rows can include K-8, 6-12, option, and other non-neighborhood programs. Growth and attendance are shown as separate OSPI context, not as ranking inputs.

Demographic columns are context for interpretation, not value judgments. Missing public evidence is not converted into a negative signal.
