Summary

Snake River High School is a public high school located in Blackfoot, Idaho, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 603 students. The school has consistently underperformed compared to other high schools in the state, ranking in the bottom half of Idaho schools over the past decade and receiving low School Digger ratings.

Snake River High School's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in ISAT subjects significantly lower than the state and district averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 51.9% in English Language Arts, 27.4% in Math, and just 15% in Science, all of which are well below the state and district averages. The school's graduation rates have also been inconsistent, ranging from 81.0% to 93.8% in recent years, below the state average of around 90%. Additionally, Snake River High School has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 4.0% to 17.1% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average of around 10%.

Interestingly, the nearby Firth High School and Blackfoot High School generally perform better than Snake River High School in terms of statewide ranking, academic performance, and graduation rates. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism, strengthening the curriculum and instructional practices, and understanding the potential influence of socioeconomic factors could be important areas of focus for Snake River High School's improvement efforts.
