Summary

Brewster Elementary School is a public elementary school (PK-5) serving 425 students in the rural Brewster School District, which faces significant economic challenges.

Academically, the school's test scores in English, Math, and Science are below state averages, and its statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years. A notable pattern is that student proficiency tends to decline in the upper elementary grades. However, the school has demonstrated a significant strength in effectively educating migrant students, ranking in the top 10% of Washington schools for that subgroup in a recent year. Compared to nearby schools, Bridgeport Elementary performs worse overall, while Pateros Elementary outperforms Brewster across all core subjects.

The school serves a community with a very high level of economic need, with over 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this, Brewster Elementary School operates with a lower student-teacher ratio than its peers while spending less per student. This suggests efficient resource use, though academic results vary. The school's performance with English Language Learners and economically disadvantaged students has seen recent declines, indicating areas for potential growth and support.
