For parents, Entiat Middle and High School is the stronger-performing option in this ZIP code, with especially encouraging math results and an 85% graduation rate, above the statewide rate of 82.6%. Its 10th-grade math proficiency was 47.62%, well above the state result, although English and science remain areas for improvement. At Paul Rumburg Elementary, literacy and upper-elementary math deserve the most attention: 3rd-grade English proficiency was 19.44%, and 5th-grade math was 16.13%. The elementary school also reported a higher free- or reduced-price lunch rate and slightly higher student-teacher ratio, factors that may indicate a need for additional support. Because both schools are small, individual grade results can vary, but the overall contrast is substantial.
