ARIMO — The Aberdeen Tigers arrived at Marsh Valley High School Friday night to take on the Eagles, having lost their last two games by a combined eight points. After jumping out to a 13-0 lead early in the second quarter, the Tiger offense was stymied by the Marsh Valley defense for the final 35-plus minutes of the game.

Kuna schools have hundreds of empty seats
Originally published Sept. 8 on IdahoEdNews.org . Most of the Kuna district's schools are below capacity, some by hundreds. That’s despite Kuna’s rapid population growth, leaving the district with a disconnect between community growth and public school enrollment. Superintendent Marcus Myers laid out the district’s capacity and enrollment numbers in a presentation to trustees Tuesday night. Hubbard Elementary: 263 students in a building with a capacity of 400. Indian Creek Elementary: 238 students in a building with a capacity of 375. Fremont Middle School: 532 students in a building with a capacity of 750. Kuna Middle School: 726 students in a building with a capacity of 960. Enrollment has dropped by nearly 4% in the district since last school year, falling from 5,703 to 5,501. Yet in 2025, the U.S. Census Bureau named Kuna one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation. "Right now we do have some room, and we want our classrooms full for the sake of our kids and for the great opportunities that we afford to kids," Myers told trustees. Some students are choosing alternatives to traditional public schools. About 2% of school-aged children within the district's boundaries attend charters schools, Myers told Idaho Education News.
