Excellent parent/teacher communication of the students. School staff is extremely friendly and gives everyone the feeling that they are welcome.

Posted October 12, 2005

I am so glad we moved into Eagleridge's boundaries. The school offers excellent music, art, and PE programs, including band and strings for 5th & 6th grade students. Parents are strongly encouraged to participate in the school environment and many do. The teachers are excellent about seeing students as individuals and encouraging them to excel in the strong areas and grow in the weaker areas. The school works hard to meet the needs of students with special needs. I can't say enough about the genuine care and concern shown by the educators for the students in their class. If you're moving into Eagleridge boundaries, you will find the school to be wonderful.

About the tests

The MSP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Washington. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
