WALLACE DISTRICT

District Overview
Located at 501 Western Avenue in Silverton, Idaho, the Wallace District is an open, traditional public school district dedicated to serving its rural remote community. Operating two active school campuses, the district offers a comprehensive academic pathway that spans from early childhood pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade. Currently educating a total student body of 489 children, the district maintains a close-knit learning atmosphere that supports students across every stage of their primary and secondary education within a standard, non-charter public framework.

A defining characteristic of the Wallace District is its expansive professional workforce relative to its student population, ensuring robust individualized support. The district utilizes a full-time equivalent workforce of roughly 150 staff members, including nearly 81 FTE certified teachers, 9 instructional aides, and over 60 support personnel. This substantial staffing context fosters low student-to-teacher ratios and a well-resourced instructional ecosystem across both schools.
