ZIP code 99021 includes four schools serving approximately 2,299 students in the Mead School District: two elementary schools serving prekindergarten through fifth grade and two high-school-level programs serving grades 9–12 or 11–12. The area has no middle school listed, and all schools are part of the same district, which ranks in the 79th percentile statewide.

Meadow Ridge Elementary is the strongest overall academic performer. It ranks in the 85th percentile among Washington elementary schools and exceeds district and state proficiency levels in English language arts, math, and science. Its math result is especially notable, with 68.23% of students proficient compared with 49.65% districtwide and 43.11% statewide. Mt Spokane High School is the leading traditional high-school option, ranking in the 78th percentile and reporting a 92.1% graduation rate. It is particularly strong in English language arts, although its math and science results are more mixed.

Creekside Elementary School currently ranks around the statewide midpoint and trails Meadow Ridge in all three reported subjects, but its ranking has improved substantially over three years. Its math proficiency rose nearly 13 percentage points in the latest year, suggesting encouraging progress, while science remains an area to watch. Mead Open Doors is a specialized program with only nine students in grades 11–12, so its suppressed or missing results cannot be meaningfully compared with the other schools. Overall, Meadow Ridge offers the strongest elementary performance, Mt Spokane combines solid academics with strong graduation outcomes, and Creekside shows the clearest recent improvement.
