School Overview

Mountainside Middle School sits in Colbert, a quiet, semi-rural community just north of Spokane that feels a world away from the city while still being close enough for everything you need. As part of the well-regarded Mead School District, Mountainside lands solidly in the top third of Washington middle schools, with consistently strong performance across English, math, and science. Families drawn to the area tend to love the spacious, suburban-rural lifestyle and the sense of a tight-knit community — and Mountainside reflects that same grounded, steady feel in its academics.
