Lakeland District

Summary:

The Lakeland District in Idaho is home to 11 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative high school. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools leading the way.

Betty Kiefer Elementary School and Twin Lakes Elementary School are the top-performing elementary schools in the district, consistently ranking among the best in the state with high test scores and 4-star ratings. At the high school level, Lakeland Senior High School stands out as the district's top-performing high school, with strong test scores and a reputation for excellence.

While the district overall outperforms the state average in most subject areas, there are some areas of concern. The middle schools in the district seem to struggle more than the elementary and high schools, with lower rankings and test scores. Additionally, the Mountainview Alternative High School lags behind the district's other high schools in terms of performance metrics. The district also faces equity challenges, with significant variation in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch across the schools.
