High Schools in Glenns Ferry Joint District

Summary:

Glenns Ferry Joint District in Idaho contains a single high school, Glenns Ferry High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has declined over the years, with a statewide ranking of 88 out of 112 Idaho high schools for the 2024-2025 school year and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Glenns Ferry High School struggles, with proficiency rates in ISAT/Math (23.7%), ISAT/Science (32.4%), and ISAT/English Language Arts (52.6%) all falling below the state averages. The school's four-year graduation rate of 82.3% is also lower than the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 15.0% is higher. These challenges may be linked to the school's relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, as indicated by the 32.28% free and reduced-price lunch rate.

Despite the higher per-student spending of $11,690 for the 2018-2019 school year, which exceeds the state average, the school's performance metrics suggest that the resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the student population. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive approach that considers the unique needs of Glenns Ferry Joint District and its community.
