Brewster School District

Brewster School District serves about 1,001 students in Brewster, Washington, across four schools offering grades prekindergarten through 12, including elementary, middle, traditional high school, and alternative programs.

Among the district’s schools, Brewster Middle School stands out as the strongest overall performer. It ranks in the 31st statewide percentile, higher than Brewster High School at the 25th percentile and Brewster Elementary School at the 12th percentile. The middle school also improved in English language arts, math, and science and performed above the district average in English and math. Eighth-grade results were particularly encouraging, while sixth grade was noticeably weaker, suggesting that the transition into middle school may be a key time for additional support. Brewster High School has the district’s strongest English results and an 88% graduation rate, above both the district and state rates. However, its math proficiency is the district’s largest academic concern.

Brewster Elementary School is the largest school and needs the most improvement based on its ranking and recent declines in English and math. Student performance generally rises by fifth grade, especially in English, but early-grade literacy remains an important priority. Brewster Alternative School serves only 13 students and has a different purpose and student population, so its results should be considered separately; its reported graduation rate was 40%, with no assessment results provided. Across the district, meal-assistance eligibility is high, emphasizing the importance of strong academic interventions and family supports. Overall, the middle school offers the clearest example of progress, while early literacy, sixth-grade transition support, high-school math, and alternative-program completion are the main areas to watch.
