Summary

Blackfoot Charter Community is a public charter school in Blackfoot, Idaho, serving 433 students in grades PK–8 as part of the Blackfoot Charter Community Learning Center Inc. district. The school operates on an exceptionally tight budget, spending just $5,432 per student — far less than nearby schools like Groveland Elementary School, which spends $9,272, or A W Johnson Elementary School at $5,642. About 59% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a poverty rate among the highest in the region and second only to Donald D Stalker Elementary.

Academically, Blackfoot Charter ranks in the bottom tier of Idaho schools. On the 2025–2026 ISAT, 30.8% of students were proficient in math, 38.3% in English language arts, and 33.3% in science — all well below state averages. Results are notably uneven by grade level: 3rd graders reached 39.6% math proficiency, but 5th and 6th graders fell to 19.6% and 15.4%. In contrast, 7th and 8th graders performed much stronger in English language arts (57.8% and 50.0%), suggesting the middle grades are a relative strength. Nearby schools like Ridge Crest Elementary School and Groveland Elementary School outperform Blackfoot Charter by wide margins.

The most encouraging sign at Blackfoot Charter is attendance. Chronic absenteeism has been cut nearly in half, falling from 35.0% in 2021–2022 to 18.5% in 2025–2026 — though it still exceeds the state average of 13.8%. Test scores also rebounded in 2025–2026, with math rising from 22.8% to 30.8% and science from 21.8% to 33.3%. While the school faces real challenges related to funding and poverty, these recent trends offer cautious hope that Blackfoot Charter Community is stabilizing after a difficult period.
