Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior

Summary:

Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior is a public high school located in Kooskia, Idaho, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 189 students. The school's performance has been a concern, with lower graduation rates, higher chronic absenteeism, and underperforming test scores compared to nearby schools and state averages.

Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior has experienced fluctuating graduation rates, ranging from a low of 53.1% in 2022-2023 to a high of 75.0% in 2020-2021, significantly lower than the 73.5% rate at Grangeville High School. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 41.1% in 2020-2021, much higher than the 28.5% rate at Grangeville High School and the 22.0% rate at Kamiah Senior High. Academically, Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior's proficiency rates in Math (32%) and Science (29.3%) were below the district and state averages in 2022-2023.

The school's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the years, from a high of 74th out of 160 Idaho high schools in 2012-2013 to 94th out of 159 in 2023-2024, suggesting that its performance has not kept pace with other schools in the state. Additionally, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior (41.8%) indicates that the school may serve a more economically disadvantaged population, which could be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance and higher chronic absenteeism rates. These concerning trends warrant further investigation and potential interventions to improve student outcomes at Clearwater Valley Junior/Senior.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
