Summary

Vallivue Middle School serves 682 students in grades 6–8 in Caldwell, Idaho, and is part of the Vallivue School District, which holds a 2-star rating. The school ranks 101st out of 174 Idaho middle schools, placing it in the 42nd percentile, and it is the highest-performing middle school in its district, ahead of Sage Valley Middle School and Summitvue Middle School in every tested subject.

Academically, Vallivue outperforms its district by a clear margin: math proficiency is 38.7%, English language arts is 52.6%, and 8th-grade science is 38.1%, compared with district averages of 34.7%, 50.3%, and 32.8% respectively. Its student-teacher ratio of 16.0 is lower than nearby schools like Summitvue (18.7), Sage Valley (19.9), and Middleton Middle School (20.0), meaning more individual attention for students.

Chronic absenteeism has climbed to 24.0%, above the state rate of 13.8% and nearly triple the rate of Middleton Middle School, though Middleton boasts higher test scores. Poverty has also risen, with 50.3% of students now qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these pressures, Vallivue has kept test scores stable, making it a solid choice among southwestern Idaho middle schools.
