Skyview Junior High School is a junior high school that is part of the Northshore School District. It is situated in Bothell, Washington, near the Canyon Park area. Built in 1993, it supports about 1,100 students every year from grades 7–9. Skyview Jr High feeds into Bothell High School. It has experienced some growth in student population due to the spurt of new construction in the area. Therefore, the Northshore School District has recently undergone some boundary line changes. Moreover, Northshore School District will be shifting from a 7-9 junior high system to a 6-8 middle school system in the near future.
