Lake Forest Park Elementary makes the best in the state list

The Puget Sound Business Journal has listed Lake Forest Park Elementary as one of the top 100 elementary schools in the state.

The State Board of Education releases its school achievement index every year. The index looks at student test scores, graduation rates and other factors to determine how schools across the state are doing and to identify schools that may be struggling. 

This ranking is based on that index from the 2012-13 school year, and only includes those schools that make the highest-ranked category, with a score of between 8 and 10.
