Posted August 3, 2005

I grew up in Kamiah and have gone to Kamiah elem., middle school and high school and will someday have my kids go there. They have a great faculty and education. Going to school in a small town is an advantage for kids in a way were they get more one on one help with teachers, there arnt near as many popularity groups to bring others down, everyone knows everyone so you dont nessacerily have such a hard time. I recomend this school for anyoine.

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Idaho used the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading, math and language usage, and in grades 5, 7 and 10 in science. The scores from the spring administration are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The grade 10 ISAT is a high school graduation requirement. The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering the specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Idaho. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
