Summary:

Zip code 83440 in Rexburg, Idaho contains two public middle-level schools serving grades 4–9, both part of Madison District, which is rated 3 stars and ranked 46th out of 101 Idaho districts, placing it in the middle of the state. Madison Junior High School serves grades 7–9 with 1,261 students, while Madison Middle School serves grades 4–6 with 878 students, for a combined enrollment of 2,139.

Academic performance differs noticeably by subject and school. In 2025–2026, Madison Middle's ELA proficiency reached 42.2%, nearly matching the district's 42.5% and well above Madison Junior High's 35.2%. Madison Middle also beat the state average in 5th-grade science (45.4% vs. 44.0%) and exceeded the district's all-grades science proficiency (40.2% vs. 33.7%) in 2024–2025. Math is a weak point at both schools, though Madison Junior High (32.4%) outpaced Madison Middle (26.8%) in the most recent year, improving by 7 points while Madison Middle declined by nearly 5 points. Chronic absenteeism is much lower at Madison Junior High (8.8%) than at Madison Middle (13.1%), a counterintuitive pattern given Madison Middle's stronger ELA and science results. Free/reduced lunch rates are modestly higher at Madison Middle (39.5% vs. 34.5%), and per-student spending is slightly higher there ($6,919 vs. $6,502).

Madison Junior High's historical state rankings are very low (3rd percentile in 2022–2023 and 9th percentile in 2023–2024), although its most recent attendance and math results show improvement. Madison Middle has no state ranking history, but its science performance is a clear strength. For parents, these two schools are not interchangeable: Madison Middle is the stronger performer in English language arts and science, while Madison Junior High offers better attendance and improving math scores. Both schools remain below state averages in math and ELA, consistent with a district that is average for Idaho but showing a split personality between its lower and upper middle-grade campuses.
