Summary

Wenatchee High School is a large public high school serving grades 9-12 to approximately 2,066 students in the Wenatchee School District.

The school's standout strength is its exceptional graduation rate of 92.8%, which is significantly higher than both the district and state averages and notably surpasses nearby schools like Eastmont Senior High and Cashmere High School. This indicates a strong system for keeping students engaged and on track to earn their diplomas. However, academic proficiency scores, especially in math where only 19.67% of students are proficient, are well below state averages and present a significant challenge that the school is working to address.

When compared to other local schools, Wenatchee High operates with a higher student-to-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending than some smaller schools, yet achieves much higher graduation rates than schools within its own district, such as Westside High School. The performance of different student groups varies widely at the school, with some groups performing very strongly while others face greater academic hurdles. The school's overall state ranking has also shown considerable fluctuation from year to year.
