Summary:
Republic Middle School is the only middle school in the rural community of Republic, Washington, and serves grades 6–8 in the Republic School District. The school enrolls 86 students, making it a small school where results can change noticeably from year to year based on the performance of a relatively small number of students. About 68.6% of students participated in the free or reduced-price lunch program in 2024–25. The reported student-teacher ratio was 24.7 to 1, and per-student spending was $5,134 in 2023–24.
Academic results at Republic Middle School are generally close to district results but below Washington averages. In 2025–26, 35.29% of students were proficient in English Language Arts, 17.65% in Math, and 39.39% in Science. Science was the school’s strongest overall subject and exceeded the district rate by about 6 percentage points, although it remained below the state average. Math was the clearest area of concern: proficiency was about 25 percentage points below the state, and it fell nearly 15 points from the previous year. The sixth-grade Math result was suppressed for privacy and should not be interpreted as zero or as an indication of performance.
Results varied considerably by grade. Seventh grade was the strongest, with 54.17% proficient in English Language Arts—slightly above the state rate—and 37.50% proficient in Math, close to the statewide result. Eighth grade was the most concerning, especially in Math, where 12.12% were proficient compared with 38.80% statewide; eighth-grade English Language Arts was also well below the state. The school’s ranking history has fluctuated, moving from the 14th percentile in 2023–24 to the 42nd percentile in 2024–25, then to the 29th percentile in 2025–26. Parents may wish to focus particularly on Math support, eighth-grade performance, and the instructional practices associated with stronger seventh-grade results.
