Idaho Education by the Numbers: 2025 Edition

DATA IN EDUCATION MATTERS. DATA IN EDUCATION MATTERS. Idaho’s education system is shaped every day by the decisions of policymakers, school leaders, and families who want what’s best for their children. Those decisions are strongest when grounded in facts. Idaho by the Numbers brings together the most relevant, current data on our state’s public education system—how many students we serve, who they are, how they are doing, and how we invest in their success.

At Bluum, we believe that data should do more than describe; it should inform and inspire. Reliable information helps state leaders identify what’s working in our schools and where improvement is needed. It helps district and charter leaders allocate scarce resources wisely. It helps principals and teachers make decisions that support students and families. And it gives parents and taxpayers a clearer view of how Idaho’s public education system is performing.

This report, compiled by our partners at Redfish Metrics, reflects the best available data from the Idaho State Board of Education, the Idaho Department of Education, and national sources. It is intended as a public resource—accessible, transparent, and useful to anyone who cares about how Idaho educates its next generation.

Bluum is excited to share this report and to make it easier for Idahoans to access and use education data in their decision making, no matter what their role in education might be.
