Absolute horrific experience. Wouldn't recommend at all for sixth. Leadership is a mess, power punitive, displaying covert school to prison pipeline behaviors. I had other parents tell me how bad it has gotten but unfortunately we had to see for ourself through the eyes and sorrow of my child. They
Posted by a parent on 7/10/2025I would not recommend this MS, staffing do not know how to communicate with family. I tried reaching out to school multiples about my kid education and never got a response. I don’t think safety at school is good, I see kids skipping school. Academic wise is not good in my opinion, my son did not ge

Posted by a community member on 10/30/2023The teachers put their blood, sweat, and tears into the kids at Pacific. Many of them go out of their way to get to know each student and to hold them to the highest of standards.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child has attended Marvista for two years and really enjoys it. Her reading and math skills have improved tremendously and the school has a great local community spirit. The PTSA is very engaged and provides free school supplies for ALL children. My daughter loves the breakfast/lunch options, and feels safe and welcome at her school. We receive consistent communication from her teacher, and I appreciate that the school also has had free community field trips to places like the Point Defiance Zoo, the ballet, and state parks for hikes. Talking to some of our family friends, other Highline and SPS schools don't have the same opportunities. We're glad our kid is a Marvista Orca.Parent Review10mo ago - Midway Elementary School
