Summary

Brewster Elementary School is a PK–5 public school serving approximately 425 students in Brewster, Washington, a small community in north-central Washington, within the high-need Brewster School District. About 91.76% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. The school has a 13.2-to-1 student-teacher ratio, lower than nearby Bridgeport Elementary and Pateros Elementary.

Brewster currently ranks 997th out of 1,138 Washington elementary schools, placing it in the 12th percentile with a one-star rating. In 2025–26, 26.84% of students met standards in English Language Arts, 23.68% in math, and 33.33% in science. These results trail Washington averages of 52.81%, 43.11%, and 50.95%, respectively. ELA is the school’s largest current weakness, especially in third grade, where 16.95% were proficient. Fifth-grade ELA was comparatively stronger at 41.67%, although it remained below the state average. Math has historically been a relative strength compared with district results, but the latest score fell below the district’s 25.00% rate.

Compared with nearby schools, Brewster performs substantially better than Bridgeport, which ranked in the 3rd percentile and posted 9.26% ELA and 8.49% math proficiency. However, Pateros ranked in the 62nd percentile and exceeded Brewster in both subjects, with 42.86% ELA and 35.48% math proficiency. Pateros is much smaller and serves a lower proportion of economically disadvantaged students, so direct comparisons require context. Parents may also want to watch Brewster’s recent decline in English Language Learner and low-income-student subgroup results. Encouraging signs include the favorable staffing ratio, historically strong migrant-student outcomes, and past success outperforming the district in math.
