School Overview

McKnight Middle School sits in Renton, a city that's grown into one of the more affordable and diverse entry points into the greater Seattle metro — close enough to the tech corridor to feel connected, but with a grounded, working-class community identity that many families genuinely appreciate. The school lands solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, with math being a relative strength, and it serves a wide mix of students that reflects Renton's increasingly multicultural character. Families who value a welcoming, community-rooted environment over a hyper-competitive atmosphere tend to find a good fit here.
