Mount Adams School District 209 (MASD) is a school district headquartered in White Swan, Washington. [2]

Contents

In 1997 it had 1,274 students, with over 60% of them being Native American. [3] In 2019 it had about 900 students. [4]

Its service area includes White Swan and Harrah. [5] It is the second largest school district in Washington State by land area. [4]

In 2019 Janella Retka of the Yakima Herald wrote that the district has a low tax base. The portions in the Yakama Reservation do not have to pay taxes, and that reduces potential revenue going to MASD. [4]
