Summary:
Zip code 83332 (Hagerman, Idaho) contains exactly one elementary-level school, Hagerman Virtual School, a small K-8 virtual school with 63 students operating within the Hagerman Joint District. Because this is the only elementary school in the area, there are no other local schools to compare it against, but you can still gauge how it performs against district and state averages.
Hagerman Virtual School stands out as a virtual option in a rural setting, serving a wider grade span (K-8) than a typical elementary school. Its test proficiency rates are well below both district and state benchmarks in every subject and year reported. In the 2025-2026 school year, only 14.7% of students were proficient in math and 23.5% in English Language Arts, compared to district rates of 45.4% and 50.0%, and state rates of 43.1% and 54.0% respectively. Even in the prior year (2024-2025), the school trailed the district by over 21 points in math and 15 points in ELA.
The most striking trend is a dramatic year-over-year decline: math proficiency fell from 26.5% to 14.7%, and ELA proficiency dropped from 41.2% to 23.5%. Because the school has only 63 students, these swings can be heavily influenced by a single cohort or testing participation changes, so the numbers may not reflect a steady decline in instructional quality. Still, the widening gap with the district, especially in ELA where nearly three-quarters of students did not meet proficiency, suggests school leaders should review virtual learning supports and student engagement. Note that the reported student-teacher ratio of 252 appears to be a data error, and no free/reduced lunch information is available, which limits deeper analysis of socioeconomic factors.
