Summary:
The 83619 zip code in Idaho is home to a single middle school, Fruitland Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has faced some challenges in recent years, it continues to play a vital role in the local community.
Fruitland Middle School's performance has declined over the past few years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 61st out of 100 middle schools in 2017-2018 to 119th out of 164 in 2023-2024. The school is currently rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating that it is underperforming compared to other middle schools in Idaho. The school's proficiency rates in math and science are well below the state averages, suggesting that students are struggling in these core academic areas. Additionally, the school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (42.41%) indicates that it may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which could be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance.
Despite these challenges, Fruitland District is committed to supporting Fruitland Middle School and helping it improve. The school's relatively low spending per student ($6,768) and higher student-teacher ratio (19.5) suggest that it may be operating with limited resources, which could impact its ability to provide comprehensive educational support and services to students. By addressing these resource constraints and implementing targeted interventions to support student learning, the school and district can work to improve the academic performance and overall well-being of the students they serve.
