Summary:

There are 8 schools serving zip code 83318 in Burley, Idaho, all part of the Cassia County Joint District — a mid-tier district ranked 64th out of 101 in Idaho. The mix includes four elementary schools (White Pine, John V Evans, Mountain View, Dworshak), one middle school, two high schools, and one online alternative school, enrolling about 3,761 students total. These schools serve a largely low-income population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 44.7% to 75.9%.

Dworshak Elementary School is the academic standout in the area. Despite having the highest poverty rate among elementary schools (65.4% free/reduced lunch), it is the only school in the zip code with proficiency above state averages in both math (45.4% vs. 43.1%) and ELA (58.7% vs. 54.0%). It also has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (8.5%) among elementary schools and earns 3 stars. At the other end, Mountain View Elementary is a major concern with 0 stars for three straight years, very low proficiency (25.6% math, 28.9% ELA), and 19.6% chronic absenteeism. Cassia Junior/Senior High School is an outlier for the wrong reasons: only 112 students, a 43.4% chronic absenteeism rate, and the highest poverty rate (75.9%). Burley Senior High School is the strongest traditional high school, with 1,031 students, low absenteeism (9.3%), and the best EOC proficiency among high schools.

Across the zip code, chronic absenteeism strongly tracks with low performance. The two schools with the best attendance (Dworshak and Burley Senior) are relative leaders, while the worst attendance (Mountain View and Cassia Jr/Sr) have the lowest outcomes. Specific grade-level red flags exist, such as White Pine’s 5th-grade math collapse (13.1% proficiency) and Burley Junior High’s 8th-grade achievement dip. Note that some data is unreliable: Mini-Cassia Online’s student-teacher ratio of 494.4 is likely a reporting artifact, graduation rates are identical across all schools (82.5%), and spending data is from 2018-19. For parents, the clearest takeaway is that school-level differences matter greatly within this district — Dworshak proves strong outcomes are possible despite poverty, while Mountain View and Cassia Jr/Sr require focused attention.
