About Schools in East Wenatchee, Washington

East Wenatchee's public school landscape covers 9 ranked schools, spanning elementary through preschool programs. The city average sits at 6.2 out of 10 — a middle-tier baseline that masks meaningful spread between the top performers and the rest of the field.

Only 2 of the 9 schools (22%) clear the 7-point mark, so standout options are concentrated rather than widespread across the district. Clovis Point Elementary leads the city at 8.6/10, the highest-rated school in East Wenatchee and one of the stronger elementary programs parents will find in this part of Washington. Grant Elementary follows at 8.1/10, giving families a second high-performing option at the same grade level. Both schools outpace the city average by more than 1.5 points and together represent East Wenatchee's most competitive academic choices.

The middle tier includes Cascade Elementary (6.8/10) and Lee Elementary (6.7/10), both just above the city average. They offer solid everyday schooling for families outside the attendance zones of the top two schools. Eastmont Preschools scores 5.9/10, slightly below the city average — worth a look for parents evaluating early childhood options, though preschool ratings typically carry different weight than elementary assessments.

For parents choosing where to live in East Wenatchee, attendance zone matters. Clovis Point and Grant are the clear targets — both sit well above the 6.2 city average and outperform 78% of local schools. Families zoned for Cascade or Lee land near average without a dramatic drop in quality. What the data makes plain is that the spread between the city's top school and the overall average is substantial enough — 2.4 points — that home address can be a meaningful factor in how your children experience school here.
