Boise High is more like a free private school. This is good news if your child is successful and well rounded. This school is not recommended if your child has problems. The school will suggest Frank Church as an alternative faster than any other high school. This is not a school for you if your need extra support for academic or behavior issues. Boise High is in the top 5% because they cherry pick their clientele. Not an accurate or fair slice of a typical group of teenagers. I worry about the unrealistic perceptions students form from attending this school.
