Summary:
Ririe Joint District is served by a single high school, Ririe Junior/Senior High School, which enrolls 354 students in grades 7–12 in the small community of Ririe, Idaho. Because this is the only high school in the district, school-level data effectively represents the district's entire secondary education picture.
The school shows clear strengths in English Language Arts and attendance. In 2025–2026, 58.9% of students scored proficient in ELA on the ISAT, above both the district (53.3%) and state (54.0%). The previous year, ELA proficiency was even stronger at 64.7%. Chronic absenteeism is remarkably low at just 2.1% in 2023–2024, far below the statewide rate of 13.8%. However, math stands out as a significant weakness. Only 31.1% of students were proficient in math in 2025–2026, down sharply from 40.5% the prior year and well below the state average of 43.1%. End of Course math proficiency was even more concerning at 21.0%, compared to 33.1% statewide. Consequently, the school's state ranking has slipped from the 57th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 33rd percentile in 2025–2026, with its star rating dropping from 3 stars to 2 stars.
Science performance is close to average overall at 41.9% proficiency versus 42.7% statewide, with a notable bright spot in 8th grade, where 51.2% of students are proficient compared to 42.9% statewide. The graduation rate of 82.5% matches the state average exactly, though it also means roughly 17.5% of students did not graduate in four years. Because the school serves grades 7 through 12 in one building, stronger middle school results can mask weaker high school performance, particularly in math. With free/reduced lunch eligibility at 24.58% and per-student spending of $8,035, Ririe Junior/Senior High School offers a solid ELA foundation and strong attendance culture, but targeted math intervention at the high school level appears to be the most urgent need.
