Summary:
The Marsh Valley Joint District in Idaho has only one middle school, Marsh Valley Middle School, which serves 188 students in grades 6-8. While the school has a predominantly White student population, its academic performance, as measured by state assessment scores, lags behind both district and state averages in math, science, and English language arts.
With a chronic absenteeism rate of 16.2%, Marsh Valley Middle School faces challenges in ensuring consistent student attendance, which likely contributes to its lower academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's spending per student of $6,150 is below the state average, potentially limiting the resources available to support student learning. The school's statewide ranking has also declined significantly in recent years, dropping from 40th out of 100 middle schools in 2017-2018 to 135th out of 164 in 2023-2024.
Overall, Marsh Valley Middle School appears to be facing several obstacles, including lower-than-average academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and potentially insufficient funding and resources. Addressing these issues should be a priority for the school and Marsh Valley Joint District to ensure students receive a high-quality education and are prepared for success.
