Summary:
The 83352 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative high school). Overall, the schools in this area show a mixed picture, with some bright spots as well as areas of concern that warrant further attention.
Shoshone High School stands out as the top performer, with an impressive 96.2% 4-year graduation rate and relatively strong science test scores. In contrast, Shoshone Middle School struggles across the board, with proficiency rates well below district and state averages in math, ELA, and science. The transition from elementary to secondary school appears to be a challenge for many students in this district.
The alternative high school, High Desert, deserves recognition for maintaining an 85.7% graduation rate despite serving a highly disadvantaged student population, with 85.19% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the school is providing valuable services to support its unique student needs. Across the district, there are also significant racial/ethnic disparities, with Hispanic students making up 40-60% of the student body, highlighting the importance of ensuring equitable outcomes for this demographic.
