MELBA JOINT DISTRICT

Situated at 511 Broadway Avenue in Melba, Idaho, the Melba Joint District operates as an active, traditional public school district serving families across two operational facilities. Nestled in a distant rural setting within the broader Boise City metropolitan area, the district delivers a complete PK–12 educational pathway, guiding children from pre-kindergarten through high school graduation. As an independent, non-charter local education agency, the district offers local families a close-knit academic environment paired with the structural stability of a comprehensive public school system.

For the 2024–2025 school year, the district educates a total student body of 824 pupils, maintaining consistent enrollment levels across its elementary, middle, and high school grades. The student population includes 641 White students, 163 Hispanic students, and a growing representation of multiracial and diverse backgrounds. To foster learning and maintain school operations, the district relies on a full-time equivalent (FTE) workforce of approximately 167 staff members. This team features nearly 94 full-time equivalent classroom teachers, bolstered by dedicated instructional aides and robust support staff, creating a supportive staff-to-student framework tailored to the needs of its rural community.
