Summary:

Eastmont Junior High is a public middle school located in East Wenatchee, Washington, serving grades 7-9 with a student population of 711. The school is part of the Eastmont School District, which is ranked 142 out of 247 districts in Washington and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eastmont Junior High has a significantly higher Hispanic student population (59.63%) compared to the state average and nearby schools, such as Cashmere Middle School and Sterling Junior High School. However, the school consistently ranks in the bottom half of Washington middle schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. Eastmont Junior High's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science are significantly lower than the state and district averages, and its subgroups, such as Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and Special Education students, perform significantly worse than their peers at the state and district levels.

Despite Eastmont Junior High's higher spending per student compared to the state average, the school's academic performance has been declining over the years, with the school's statewide ranking dropping from 267 out of 445 middle schools in 2014-2015 to 460 out of 535 in 2023-2024. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, as well as the significant racial/ethnic disparities at the school, may be contributing to these challenges. Nearby schools, such as Cashmere Middle School and Sterling Junior High School, have significantly higher academic performance and statewide rankings compared to Eastmont Junior High, despite serving similar student populations.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
