Bonneville Online School

Summary:

Bonneville Online School is a public virtual high school serving grades 6-12 in the Bonneville Joint School District in Idaho Falls, ID, with a relatively small student population of 280 students. Despite its virtual format, the school has demonstrated strong academic performance, ranking 28th out of 110 Idaho high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bonneville Online School's academic achievements are particularly impressive, with its students outperforming the district and state averages in several ISAT subject areas, including English Language Arts. The school has also seen a steady improvement in its 4-year graduation rates, reaching 89.8% in the current school year, which is higher than the state average and significantly better than some of the nearby traditional high schools, such as Bonneville High School. Additionally, Bonneville Online School has demonstrated strong performance across various student subgroups, including female students, male students, Hispanic students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Bonneville Online School's academic performance is impressive, the school has also experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.5% to 16% over the past two school years. This is an area that the school may need to address to ensure consistent student engagement and success. Furthermore, when compared to nearby schools, such as Praxium Mastery Academy, which has significantly outperformed Bonneville Online School and the Bonneville Joint School District in several ISAT subject areas, the virtual format may not be the sole factor in Bonneville Online School's success, and the school could potentially learn from the practices of its higher-performing neighbors.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
