District-Level NCES Analysis
Kimberly District operates 6 public schools serving 2,153 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Idaho. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 2 combined, 1 high, 1 middle schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Twin Falls County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $8,127 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 171 Idaho districts by per-pupil spending. See how Idaho compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis.

The district's equity score is 25/100, ranked #126 of 139 in Idaho against a state average of 48, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

That dominant concentration means Kimberly District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Kimberly District school enrollment ranges from 31 students (lowest) to 640 students (highest), a spread of 609 students.

Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Kimberly District student-counselor ratio is 433:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
