Summary

Morgen Owings Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 472 students in the Lake Chelan School District, a rural community in central Washington.

Academic performance at Morgen Owings is below state averages, with particular challenges in mathematics where proficiency declines from 3rd to 5th grade. The school serves a population with significant economic need, yet its academic results are lower than several nearby schools with similar or higher levels of student poverty, such as Pateros Elementary and Orondo Elementary and Middle School. This indicates the school faces specific challenges in achieving strong academic outcomes relative to its peers in the region.

While the school's performance has declined from a decade ago, its statewide ranking has stabilized in recent years, and science is a relative strength compared to other subjects. However, a recent increase in class size coincides with lower scores, and the school's moderate per-student spending has not yielded results comparable to neighbors like Waterville Elementary. The success of these nearby schools demonstrates that strong outcomes are achievable in the area, suggesting Morgen Owings has room for improvement by learning from higher-performing local examples.
