Summary

Morgen Owings Elementary School is a public K–5 school in Chelan, serving 472 students in a central Washington community and belonging to the mid-ranked Lake Chelan School District. The district ranks around the 53rd percentile statewide, but the school ranks in the 17th percentile, making its school-level results notably weaker than the district’s overall standing.

Recent assessment results show that 33.78% of students were proficient in English language arts, 26.67% in math, and 40.28% in science. Math is the clearest concern, especially in fifth grade, where proficiency was 18.06%; results declined from 34.67% in third grade to 26.92% in fourth grade and 18.06% in fifth grade. ELA performance has been low but relatively stable, while science is the school’s strongest tested subject. The school serves a population with significant economic need, with 58.69% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and its student-teacher ratio was 15.5:1. Effectiveness rankings are particularly low for economically disadvantaged students and English Language Learners, suggesting a need for focused academic, language-access, and intervention supports.

Compared with nearby schools, Morgen Owings generally trails in recent achievement. Its 26.67% math proficiency rate was below Manson Elementary at 53.39%, Waterville Elementary at 35.09%, and Pateros Elementary at 35.48%, though it exceeded Bridgeport Elementary at 8.49%. Its ELA result also trailed Waterville, Manson, Pateros, and Orondo Elementary and Middle School, while exceeding Paul Rumburg Elementary. These nearby schools, particularly Manson, Waterville, and Pateros, may offer useful examples of instructional and intervention practices.
