Schools in Orondo School District · Douglas County

Cascade Elementary in East Wenatchee leads Douglas County's 16 ranked public schools, reaching the 74th percentile statewide — a notable result for a county where no school currently lands in Washington's top quartile. Waterville High School and Bridgeport High School follow closely, both hovering near the 61st–62nd percentile across five districts spread through a largely rural stretch of central Washington. The county's modest scale and geographic spread, from the Columbia River town of Bridgeport to the wheat-country seat of Waterville, mean families will find smaller schools with limited program variety but worth examining for the right fit.
