How Idaho's high schools compare

A: 37B: 70C: 56D: 8

63% of the 171 ranked high schools in Idaho earn an A or B (37 A grades, 70 B, 56 C, 8 D, 0 F), against 48% of high schools nationwide. 125 schools meet or beat the proficiency projected from their student context (73% here, 75% nationally), and 63 exceed it. On average 46% of tested students meet the state bar against a projected 45% (national averages: 42% actual, 40% projected).

The biggest overperformers, by actual proficiency above projection: Coeur Dalene Charter Academy School (86% against 45%, A+), Richard Mckenna Charter School Onsite (75% against 36%, A), North Idaho Stem Charter Academy (90% against 53%, A+), Victory Charter School (79% against 48%, A+), Compass Public Charter School (79% against 56%, A+).

Districts with the most schools in the top quarter (the top 43): Joint School District No. 2 (7), Boise Independent District (2), Pocatello District (2).

Cities with the most ranked high schools: Meridian (12, 10 at A or B), Nampa (9, 4 at A or B), Boise (8, 7 at A or B), Idaho Falls (8, 7 at A or B), Caldwell (5, 2 at A or B).

The largest ranked high schools: Idaho Home Learning Academy (6,875 students, B+, #58), Mountain View High School (2,462 students, B+, #39), Rigby High School (2,038 students, B+, #48).

Of the top 25, 2 are magnet schools and 14 are charters. Selective and specialised schools tend to post high actual scores; the projection column is the fairer comparison for a neighborhood school.

High schools in Idaho that are not ranked

65 graded high schools are listed here rather than ranked, each for the reason given. Every one has its own page with its full SchoolGrade report.

Special-purpose schools (41)

Alternative, special-education and vocational schools serve a different mission and a different student body, so they are graded but not ranked against regular schools.
