Summary

Wilbur Secondary School is a small public high school serving 109 students in grades 7-12 in the rural community of Wilbur, Washington, and is part of the Wilbur School District.

The school has shown notable strengths, particularly in supporting its economically disadvantaged students, where it ranks in the state's top 20%, and it consistently achieves graduation rates that meet or exceed the state average. While performance has fluctuated over the years, recent trends are positive, with the school improving its statewide ranking. It demonstrates efficiency, achieving solid outcomes with a per-student spending rate that is lower than some neighboring schools, such as Creston Junior-Senior High School.

When compared to nearby schools, Wilbur often performs better academically despite similar challenges. For example, it outperforms Lake Roosevelt Junior/Senior High School in subjects like 10th-grade English. However, parents should note that performance can vary significantly by grade level and subject, with middle school English and high school science showing particular year-to-year volatility. The school's small size allows for a favorable student-teacher ratio, which can provide more individualized attention for students.
