Cougar Ridge Elementary

Cougar Ridge Elementary sits in the rolling, wooded neighborhoods of southwest Bellevue, where tree-lined streets and trail access give the area a quieter, more suburban feel than much of the Eastside — yet top-tier tech employers and Seattle are both just a short commute away. As part of the highly regarded Issaquah School District, Cougar Ridge consistently performs at the very top of the state in English, math, and science, drawing families who prioritize strong academics without sacrificing that tight-knit elementary school community feel. It's a natural fit for families settling into neighborhoods like Cougar Ridge or Lakemont who want excellent public schooling in a setting that still feels genuinely neighborly.
