Schools in Loon Lake School District · Stevens County

Rural and spread across a wide swath of northeastern Washington, Stevens County runs its 26 public schools through 11 separate districts — a structure that mirrors the region's scattered towns and long distances between them. No school here cracks the top quartile statewide, but Colville serves as the county's academic anchor: Colville Senior High School ranks in the 72nd percentile statewide, and Colville Junior High and Fort Colville Elementary trail close behind. Families weighing this county should understand it's a frontier-style system where district size varies considerably and Colville's schools outpace the rest by a meaningful margin.
