District-Level NCES Analysis
Republic School District operates 4 public schools serving 378 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Washington. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 1 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Ferry County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,977 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 309 Washington districts by per-pupil spending. See how Washington compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 9.3% local, 77.2% state, and 13.5% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 76/100, ranked #30 of 238 in Washington against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 1079.7:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 29.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 83.6% White, 6.0% Hispanic or Latino, 0.8% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Republic Junior High, with a diversity index of 34.1/100.
Its largest campus is Republic Parent Partner, enrolling 199 students (37% of the district's total enrollment).
Republic Parent Partner accounts for 36.9% of all Republic School District student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Republic School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Republic School District school enrollment varies 2.3× across entities
Republic School District school enrollment ranges from 86 students (lowest) to 199 students (highest), a spread of 113 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Republic School District has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 59.6% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Republic School District student-counselor ratio is 1080:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Republic School District chronic absenteeism rate is 29.3% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Republic School District is typically wider than the Republic School District-aggregate figure suggests.
Republic School District has 4 schools, including 1 combined, 1 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle. Total enrollment is 378 students.
