- Creston High School (9-12) is the only secondary school in the small town of Creston, Washington.
- Demographics
-
The majority of the students reside outside of Creston. The district buses kids from Deer Meadows, Hawk Creek, Lincoln, Seven Bays, and Sterling Valley. A small number of students are from towns outside the district, such as Harrington and Creston's sports co-op partner, Wilbur.
- Sports
-
Through its history, Creston has had two athletic teams. Up to 1985, the team was called the Creston Comets. The colors were purple and gold. In 1982, the girls' high school basketball team reached Creston's first district tournament in nearly half a century, and won the state championship against the Reardan Indians, which was the first time in school history any team had gone to a state championship in any sport. Creston faced Reardan again the following year, but lost. They redeemed themselves in 1984, beating Reardan again for the championship, becoming the first girls high school "B" basketball team in Washington State to win the state championship more than once. This was also the last time the Comets would appear in district and state play.
- In the fall of 1985, due to falling enrollment from both schools, Creston and Wilbur formed a sports co-op and became the Wilbur-Creston Wildcats. The colors are royal blue and silver. The Wilbur-Creston boys went to their first basketball championship in 1989. At least one Wildcat team (boys and/or girls) has gone to a state basketball championship every year except 1995 and 2005. In 2004, the boys won 4th place and from 2001 to 2003, they won third place. The girls team won the state championship in 2000. Of the ten players, three were Creston students.
