COUNCIL JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL

COUNCIL JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the COUNCIL DISTRICT school district, located in COUNCIL, ID with about 110 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 10 teachers, COUNCIL JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. 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.

COUNCIL JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL, located at 101 East Bleeker Avenue in Council, Idaho, serves as the central educational hub for students in the surrounding rural community.

Academically, the institution is committed to preparing students for life after graduation, whether that involves pursuing higher education, vocational training, or entering the workforce.
