History
In 2008 the enrollment was 162. At that time, there was debate in the Gooding Chamber of Commerce over to what extent the school would pull students from the Gooding School District.[5]
In 2009 the school did not yet have its own campus, but rented space from the Idaho School for the Deaf and the Blind. It had plans to buy a permanent building with money from the United States Department of Agriculture.[6]
By 2009, the enrollment in the school district was down to 90% of its pre-NVA levels.[7]
