Summary:

Zip code 83443 in Ririe, Idaho, is served by two schools in the Ririe Joint District: Ririe Elementary School (grades PK–6, 365 students) and Ririe Junior/Senior High School (grades 7–12, 354 students), a small rural district rated 2 stars by the state. The two schools share nearly identical demographics and resources—about one-quarter of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, student-teacher ratios are close (17.3 vs. 16.8), and per-student spending is similar ($7,842 vs. $8,035)—which makes their academic differences all the more notable.

Ririe Elementary School is a clear standout in mathematics, posting an all-grades math proficiency rate of 53.1% in 2025–26, well above the state's 43.1%. Its 3rd grade math (67.3% vs. 50.9% statewide) and 6th grade math (57.7% vs. 42.5%) are especially strong. However, the elementary school lags the state in ELA at 49% vs. 54%. Ririe Junior/Senior High School shows the opposite pattern: it exceeds the state in ELA at 58.9% vs. 54%, including a strong End-of-Course ELA score of 65%, but struggles significantly in math at 31.1% vs. 43.1% statewide. The high school also boasts extremely low chronic absenteeism of just 2.1%, compared to the state's 13.8%.

The most striking finding is the 22-point drop in math proficiency between elementary (53.1%) and secondary (31.1%). End-of-Course math at the high school is particularly low at 21% proficient vs. 33.1% statewide, suggesting that strong elementary math foundations are not being maintained after the transition to 6th grade. Science results are mixed: 8th grade science is strong at 51.2% vs. 42.9% statewide, but End-of-Course science trails. Both schools have seen their SchoolDigger rankings slip in recent years, with the high school falling from the 57th percentile in 2023–24 to the 33rd percentile in 2025–26. The graduation rate of 82.5% matches the state average exactly. Overall, these are engaged, stable schools with one bright spot each—math at the elementary level and ELA/attendance at the secondary level.
