Summary:
Zip code 83805 is home to a single high school, Bonners Ferry High School, which serves grades 9 through 12 with 421 students as part of the Boundary County District. Because only one high school exists in this zip code, there are no school-to-school comparisons to make; instead, the focus is on how this school compares to district and state averages.
Bonners Ferry High School shows clear academic strengths in English Language Arts and science. In the 2025-2026 school year, 73% of students were proficient in ELA, well above the state average of 61.3%, and 49.5% were proficient in science, compared to 41.2% statewide. Math is the school's biggest challenge, with only 29.1% proficiency in 2025-2026, below the state's 33.1%, and a wider gap in 2024-2025 when the school posted 28.0% proficiency versus 43.1% statewide. The school holds a consistent 3-star rating from the state of Idaho and ranked in the 60th percentile of Idaho high schools for 2025-2026.
One significant concern is chronic absenteeism. The school's rate of 22.3% means more than one in five students is chronically absent, compared to just 13.6% for the district and 13.8% statewide. The graduation rate of 82.5% exactly matches both the district and state averages, meaning roughly one in six students does not graduate on time. The school spends about $10,424 per student, though this figure is from 2018-2019 and may be outdated. Overall, Bonners Ferry High School is a mid-tier Idaho high school with strong ELA and science performance, weaker math results, and an attendance issue that families may want to monitor closely.
