IDAHO CITY HIGH SCHOOL

IDAHO CITY HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the BASIN SCHOOL DISTRICT school district, located in IDAHO CITY, ID with about 190 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 14 teachers, IDAHO CITY HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

IDAHO CITY HIGH SCHOOL is a small, rural public secondary school located in the historic mountain community of Idaho City, Idaho. Serving as a central educational hub for the Boise Basin, the school operates within the Basin School District. Because of its location in a small, remote town, the high school is characterized by a close-knit environment where students and faculty often share strong, personal connections. The school typically serves a modest student body, allowing for smaller class sizes and a learning atmosphere that focuses on individual student progress and community involvement.

Academically and extracurricularly, IDAHO CITY HIGH SCHOOL functions as the heart of the local community, emphasizing traditional values alongside modern educational standards. While it offers the essential curriculum required for graduation and college preparation, the school also takes pride in its local identity, often participating in small-school athletics and community-wide events. The facility at 100 Centerville Road serves not just as an academic space, but as a gathering place that reflects the unique, rugged character of the surrounding Boise National Forest region.
