NOTUS JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL

NOTUS JR/SR HIGH SCHOOL is a Title I public high school that is part of the NOTUS DISTRICT school district, located in CALDWELL, ID with about 214 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 16 teachers, NOTUS JR/SR 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.

Notus Junior/Senior High School, located in Caldwell, Idaho, serves as a combined secondary institution providing education for students in grades 7 through 12. As part of the Notus School District, the campus functions as the hub of its local community, characterized by its small-town atmosphere and a focus on personalized student attention. Because it houses both middle and high school grade levels in one facility, the school emphasizes a continuous academic pipeline that allows for mentorship opportunities between older and younger students, as well as a tight-knit campus culture.

The school is known for its commitment to traditional academic values integrated with extracurricular engagement, which is common in smaller, rural Idaho districts. Students at Notus have access to a variety of athletic programs and clubs that help define the "Pirate" school spirit. By maintaining a smaller student-to-teacher ratio, Notus Junior/Senior High strives to provide a supportive environment that prepares graduates for post-secondary education, vocational training, or direct entry into the workforce while remaining deeply connected to the values of the surrounding Caldwell/Notus community.
