Kilo Middle School

Kilo Middle School sits in the southern reaches of King County, where Auburn and Federal Way blend together in one of the region's more working-class, tight-knit communities. Academics here are a work in progress, with scores hovering around the 27th percentile in English and Math, so families who prioritize strong school performance may want to weigh their options carefully — though the school can be a solid fit for families who value community connection and are prepared to supplement learning at home. The surrounding area offers affordable housing and easy access to both Seattle and Tacoma, making it a practical choice for commuting families planting roots in the south King County corridor.
