Nampa High Meets All No Child Left Behind Requirements! 
Nampa High was one of the few schools in the Boise/Nampa/Caldwell area that made AYP.  What does this mean for your student? 

The ISAT is an important component of the statewide student assessment system as stated in the board rule 08.02.03- Rules Governing Thoroughness.  The ISAT is administered to students in grades 3-8 and 10 to provide ongoing monitoring of individual, school, district and state progress.  >>MORE …

With a decades-long tradition of educating students and our open college-type campus, Nampa High School stands out as a classic among a city of newer schools.

For nearly 100 years, Nampa’s youth were served by one public high school – Nampa Senior High School. The school moved to its current home at the corner of 12th Avenue Road and Lake Lowell Avenue in 1955.

Many of our original buildings are still in use, but through the years our district has invested in improving the campus. During the next three years, Nampa will undergo a $14 million renovation that will include a new classroom building and upgrades to nearly every corner of the campus.

Our instructional program focuses on the needs of students.

A student’s high school experience begins with small learning communities that create strong bonds among students and teachers, and creates a solid foundation for graduation and beyond.
