My daughter attended Pathways from 2008-2010 and it was a great school for her! She was able to get the personalized attention she needed by a caring and competent staff. She is now in her 2nd year in traditional high school and is doing well. We will always be grateful for Pathways Middle School!

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.
