Did you know?
Lots of valuable information about district and individual school student achievement is available online.
Each School Performance Report is linked directly from each school's web homepage. (Look under each school's QuickLinks for a link to OSPI Washington State School Report Card.)
At that OSPI site you can browse through historical performance data for more than a decade - for any school in the district or the state. By following the prompts on that OSPI website, you can also find current and historical data aggregated at the district level.
Among information available on that site you will find Hawthorne, Emerson and Silver Lake elementary schools listed by the federal government as a "Focus," "Emerging," or "Reward" school respectively. This means those schools qualify for additional federal funding to support work to improve student learning.
Silver Lake Elementary and North Middle School have also each recently been named by the state of Washington as "Schools of Distinction" for the way they have steadily sustained student learning improvement over the years.
Madison Elementary School was also designated as only one of two schools in the state to receive national recognition as a Title I School of Distinction. They were selected by OSPI for this designation because the work being done there as a Title I school (a school with a large proportion of students from poverty-impacted families) is exemplary. The principal and members of the Madison staff will be sharing their teaching methods and ways of involving families in student learning with other schools from around the nation.
