Summary:

The city of Rupert, Idaho is home to a single middle school, East Minico Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Idaho middle schools in recent years, with below-average scores on standardized tests across all subjects and grade levels.

East Minico Middle School faces several challenges, including a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 34.6%, and a student-teacher ratio of 18.4, which is slightly higher than the state average. The school's per-student spending of $7,511 for the 2018-2019 school year was also below the state average, which may be a contributing factor to its underperformance.

The data highlights the need for the Minidoka County Joint District and the state of Idaho to focus on improving the performance of East Minico Middle School. Strategies such as targeted interventions, professional development for teachers, and increased funding may be necessary to address the challenges faced by this school and provide a quality education for all students.
