Summary:

Mountain View School District is a small, rural Idaho district serving approximately 1,048 students across five schools spanning pre-K through grade 12. The district overall ranks 56th out of 101 Idaho districts—solidly middle-of-the-pack—and its test scores trail state averages in math (37.4% vs. 43.1%), English language arts (52.9% vs. 54.0%), and science (41.6% vs. 42.7%).

For parents comparing schools, the district is effectively split into two very different communities. Grangeville High School is the clear academic standout, earning a 5-star rating in 2024-2025 and ranking 7th of 112 Idaho high schools; its 2025-2026 End-of-Course scores of 66.7% in ELA and 45.3% in science remain above state averages, and it has the district's lowest chronic absenteeism (12.5%) and lowest poverty rate (32.4% free/reduced lunch). The district's largest school, Grangeville Elementary/Middle School, generally hovers near district averages but posts strong grade-level results in 3rd-grade ELA (59.6%), 5th-grade ELA (64.3%), and 5th-grade science (50.0%), while 4th-grade math (29.6%) is a clear weak spot.

By contrast, Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior ranks in the bottom quarter of Idaho high schools and has the district's highest chronic absenteeism at 22.1%, although its 8th-grade math proficiency (43.5%) beats both district and state averages. Clearwater Valley Elementary also faces challenges, with a 68.4% poverty rate, though it outperforms the junior/senior high in math. Elk City School is a small outlier with just 13 students and no reported test scores, yet it spends $26,646 per student—nearly three times Grangeville Elementary/Middle's $9,493. District-wide, chronic absenteeism (15.6%) exceeds the state rate (13.8%), and both high schools report identical 82.5% graduation rates, suggesting a district-level figure rather than meaningful school comparisons. Overall, Grangeville-area schools offer stronger academics and lower poverty, while Clearwater Valley and Elk City schools serve smaller, higher-need communities and may benefit from additional support.
