Summary

Kuna Middle School, part of the Kuna Joint District, serves 672 students in grades 6–8 in Kuna, Idaho, and has climbed steadily from the 6th percentile of Idaho middle schools in 2022–2023 to the 47th percentile for 2025–2026 — making it one of the more encouraging improvement stories in the region.

Academically, Kuna's math proficiency of 46.3% outpaces both the district (44.3%) and state (43.1%), and its 8th graders post particularly strong math results: 52.1% proficient versus 41.2% statewide. The school's ELA proficiency of 46.2% remains below the state average of 54.0%, but students show meaningful growth during their middle school years — 6th graders enter significantly behind in reading, yet by 8th grade the gap has nearly closed (53.0% versus 54.5% statewide). Eighth-grade science is also a bright spot at 45.6%, above both district and state averages. This grade-by-grade pattern suggests Kuna Middle School adds real value while students are enrolled.

Attendance is perhaps the school's strongest differentiator. Kuna's chronic absenteeism rate of 6.6% is dramatically lower than nearby schools like Meridian Middle School (23.9%), South Middle School (24.6%), and East Valley Middle School (25.3%) — a remarkable turnaround from 24.6% just two years earlier. Kuna also serves a higher-need population than its same-district peers (43.75% free/reduced lunch versus 33.68% at Synergy Middle School and 27.97% at Fremont H Teed Middle School) yet still exceeds those schools in math proficiency. The main opportunity going forward is closing the ELA gap with top-tier area schools like Victory Middle School (79.0%) and Lake Hazel Middle School (61.5%), but given the school's rapid multi-year improvement and exceptionally low absenteeism, the trajectory remains positive.
