School Overview

Denny Yasuhara Middle School sits in northeast Spokane and puts up some genuinely remarkable academic numbers, particularly in English and math, where it ranks among the very best middle schools in Washington state. Families who prioritize strong core academics will find a lot to like here, and the school draws from a community that takes education seriously.
