District Overview
Situated in a rural remote setting in eastern Washington, the Ritzville School District serves as a cornerstone of learning and community development for local families. Headquartered at 209 E.

The district currently serves a close-knit student body of 415 learners, maintaining a balanced demographic and manageable class sizes across all grade levels.
