Cedar Trails Elementary

Tucked into the fast-growing city of Sammamish on the Sammamish Plateau east of Seattle, Cedar Trails Elementary sits in one of Washington's most academically competitive communities, where strong math and science scores reflect both the school's focus and the tech-industry families who've made this area home. Families drawn to outdoor recreation, newer neighborhoods, and a tight-knit suburban feel will find a lot to like here, with easy access to trails, parks, and Lake Sammamish just down the hill. It's a strong fit for families who want rigorous academics in a community that genuinely invests in its schools.
