GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I enjoyed attending school here, although the school itself has very few windows, which is due to its layout, making it feel small and cramped. My favorite part, however, is their transfer program from each of the Nampa school districts, allowing students to take classes from each school as they so please.

Skyview has been a great school to finish my high school years. There are clubs, programs and sports for every interest. Sporting events are fun, but always safe. The security staff makes it a point to get to know everyone. The school is really clean, so that is always a plus.

I have grown up at Skyview. It feels like a safe place for more with all the memories it harbors. The teachers and all the staff are so incredible. The sports are so competitive yet fun at the same time. I feel as though Skyview provides its students with amazing resources for everyone in all aspects. The college and career center provides all students a very helpful source of information and provides college field trips to explore local colleges and what they have to provide. Skyview is a great academic school as well. The school provides after-school help labs as well as student provided tutoring. We also have a 40 minutes class period 4 days a week that we refer to as "mentoring". I find this very helpful because it allows all students to have access to any and all teachers if we need assistance and it also acts as a great opportunity to work on homework or projects during the school day. This has proven to be very helpful for me because I get the chance to ask my peers for help.

While I understand the argument that sports get most of the money, I think it's a false perception. The funding for the sports is mostly earned through admissions to th...

The school administration needs to do a better job preventing bullying and creating a more nurturing and challenging environment for students. This school seems to fall right in line with the overarching problems that face the entire NSD district. If you are thinking of moving to Nampa and have chil...
