Basin School District

Summary:

The Basin School District in Idaho is home to two schools: Basin Elementary School and Idaho City High School. Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates exceeding the district and state averages. However, the schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, which are significantly higher than the state's average.

Basin Elementary School has a student population of 181, with a higher rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 34.81% compared to Idaho City High School's 23.23%. The elementary school also spends more per student at $12,308, while the high school spends $10,840 per student. Both schools have relatively small student-teacher ratios, with Basin Elementary at 13.1 and Idaho City High at 12.7.

The racial demographics of both schools are predominantly White, with Basin Elementary at 95.03% and Idaho City High at 93.55%, which is higher than the state's overall racial diversity. This suggests an area for potential improvement in promoting greater inclusivity and representation within the Basin School District.
