- Vallivue School District has seen a 14% increase in enrollment for the 2024-25 school year. Ending 2023-24 with just over 10,000 students, the district received 1,400 new-to-the-district students.

Vallivue’s neighbors in the Nampa School District have seen a tremendous amount of change over the summer with a new bus company, four day school weeks, and school closures as their enrollment has been declining but the Vallivue school district has seen a tremendous amount of growth; 14%! Vallivue ended last year with just over 10,000 students enrolled and are beginning this school year with 1400 new-to-the-district students. I caught up with assistant superintendent Joey Palmer yesterday to talk about that growth as the district is building two new elementary schools.
