School Overview

Mount Baker Junior High sits in the rural foothills of Whatcom County, where the Cascade Mountains are practically in the backyard and the community is tight-knit in the way that small towns tend to be. Academics here are a work in progress, with test scores running below the state median across English, math, and science — so families who prioritize rigorous academics may want to look closely at what supports are available. That said, for families rooted in the Deming area who value a close community, outdoor surroundings, and a school where teachers likely know every kid by name, this can be a meaningful place to grow up.
