Summary

Mount Adams Middle School is a small public school in White Swan, Washington, serving 136 students in grades 7–8 within the rural Mount Adams School District. The school serves a community with very high economic need: 95.59% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25. Its student-teacher ratio was 22.2:1, higher than at most nearby comparison schools.

Academic results are a major concern. In 2025–26, the school reported 9.84% proficiency in English language arts, 8.26% in math, and 10.53% in science—the lowest results among the nearby conventional middle schools in the available comparison. By contrast, Toppenish Middle School reported 26.55% in ELA, 16.27% in math, and 24.89% in science, while Wapato Middle School reported 24.51%, 12.29%, and 18.48%. Statewide rates were 52.81% in ELA, 43.11% in math, and 50.95% in science. The school ranked 514th of 514 Washington middle schools in 2025–26, while its district ranked 238th of 238 districts.

There are a few signs of recent movement, especially in math, which rose from 2.31% proficiency in 2024–25 to 8.26% in 2025–26, but performance remains very low in every subject and both grades. The school also reported $25,588 in spending per student in 2023–24, more than nearby schools such as Toppenish Middle School and Wapato Middle School. Because the school is small, percentages can shift noticeably when only a few students improve; nevertheless, the long-term pattern suggests a need to examine instruction, attendance, intervention, staffing, and how available resources support students.
