School Overview

Cheney Middle School serves a small college town just southwest of Spokane, home to Eastern Washington University and a community that tends to have a tight-knit, unpretentious feel. The school sits in the middle of the pack academically, with science being a relative strength, and families here often appreciate the quieter, more affordable alternative to living closer to the city. It's a solid option for families drawn to small-town living with easy access to Spokane's amenities, though families with strong academic priorities may want to stay engaged and explore additional enrichment opportunities.
