At Soundview School in Lynnwood, education is rooted in a simple, yet powerful belief: that every child deserves an education that is ethical, rigorous and compassionate.
Teachers and staff nurture intellectually motivated students to become knowledgeable, empathetic and ethical citizens who are prepared to lead and contribute to a rapidly changing world.
“Soundview is your school for curiosity, growth and belonging, a safe place where learning goes beyond academics to inspire a lifelong love of discovery and a deep sense of community,” says Chrissy Sinclair, Interim Head of School.
“From early childhood through middle school, we cultivate curiosity through inquiry-based learning, foster growth by challenging each student to reach their potential, and create a strong sense of belonging through relationships built on trust, respect and care.”
Soundview’s classrooms are alive with hands-on experiences, collaborative projects and meaningful discussions. Guided by the International Baccalaureate (IB) philosophy, students learn to ask thoughtful questions, think critically and approach challenges with creativity and confidence.
Every child is encouraged to see themselves as a capable learner and compassionate human being whose actions can make a difference locally and globally.
Recognizing that each student learns in unique ways, dedicated teachers create an environment where individuality is celebrated and every student feels seen, supported and challenged. Small class sizes and personalized instruction ensure that students not only achieve academic excellence but also develop the social and emotional skills that form the foundation of lifelong success.
Supporting those goals is learning that extends beyond the classroom walls. Students explore the natural world, engage in service learning and experience a curriculum that connects them to real-world issues.
“Whether hiking in the Pacific Northwest, presenting an exhibition project, or collaborating on a community initiative, our students learn to lead with empathy, integrity and purpose,” Sinclair notes.

“At Soundview, we offer more than an education, we offer a foundation for a meaningful life,” Sinclair says. “Through ethical learning, academic rigor and compassionate guidance, your child will discover the joy of curiosity, the confidence of growth and the comfort of belonging.
