Summary:
Oakley, Idaho is home to a single public high school, Oakley Junior/Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. This small, rural school has seen fluctuations in its performance over the past few years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 39th out of 106 Idaho high schools in 2022-2023 to 59th out of 112 in 2024-2025. The school's rating has also varied, from 3 stars out of 5 in 2022-2023 to 4 stars in 2023-2024 and back down to 2 stars in 2024-2025.
Oakley Junior/Senior High School has some areas of strength, such as outperforming the Cassia County Joint District and state averages in ISAT/Math for All Grades and ISAT/English Language Arts for All Grades in 2024-2025. However, the school also underperformed the district and state in ISAT/Science for End of Course. The school's four-year graduation rate of 82.3% in 2023-2024 is a strong performance, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 15.0% in the same year is on the higher side.
With a relatively small student population of 178 and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.8 in 2023-2024, Oakley Junior/Senior High School may be able to provide more personalized attention and support for its students. However, the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (32.58% in 2023-2024) suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may be an important factor in understanding the school's performance and the resources it needs to ensure all students can succeed.
