Summary:

Ririe Junior/Senior High School is a public high school in Ririe, Idaho, serving 337 students in grades 7-12. The school is part of the Ririe Joint District, which is ranked 22 out of 77 districts in the state and rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Ririe Junior/Senior High School stands out for its high graduation rates, ranging from 83.3% to 90.0% over the past 5 years, which are higher than nearby schools like Lincoln High School, Jefferson High School, and Central High School. The school also has lower chronic absenteeism rates compared to its peers. However, its ISAT Math and Science proficiency scores have been more variable, sometimes falling below state and district averages, while its English Language Arts scores have consistently outperformed.

Ririe Junior/Senior High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, reaching a high of 11 out of 52 Idaho high schools in 2017-2018 but dropping to 97 out of 110 in 2021-2022. This decline suggests the school may be facing challenges in maintaining its academic performance compared to other schools in the state, such as the higher-performing Praxium Mastery Academy. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($8,035 in 2018-2019) is lower than some nearby schools, which may be a factor in its performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
