Best Public Schools in Zip Code 83687

Summary:

The 83687 zip code area is home to 12 schools spanning elementary, middle, high, and alternative education, spread across two school districts - Vallivue School District and Nampa School District. While the area features some standout performers like Idaho Arts Charter School and Birch Elementary, there are also significant disparities in academic outcomes, with some schools struggling to meet state and district averages.

Idaho Arts Charter School stands out with the highest 4-year graduation rate at 83.6% and strong performance on ISAT tests, while Birch Elementary in the Vallivue School District also excels, with over 49% of students proficient or better in math and 52.8% in English Language Arts. In contrast, schools like Endeavor Elementary and Snake River Elementary struggle, with test scores well below state and district averages.

The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance, as schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores and graduation rates. Additionally, Vallivue School District schools generally outperform Nampa School District schools, indicating there may be systemic differences in educational quality and resources between the two districts within the 83687 zip code area.
