Sugar-Salem High School is a four-year public secondary school in Sugar City, Idaho, the only traditional high school of the Sugar-Salem Joint School District #322 in Madison County. The school colors are royal blue and white and the mascot is a digger, a reference to sugar beet cultivation.
The school district takes in students from the surrounding area, from the local non-census designated communities of Salem (mostly inside Madison County, but partially straddling Fremont County) and Plano on the west to beyond the town of Newdale on the east. On the north, it borders Fremont County, following the Snake River tributary known as Henrys Fork. On the south, it borders Madison School District and the city of Rexburg.
Sugar-Salem High School was built in 1989. The high school was previously housed in what is now Sugar-Salem Junior High School.
Sugar-Salem High School has received academic awards including a bronze medal on the U.S. News & World Report List of America’s Best High Schools in 2008 and was listed as a top school in Redbook Magazine in 1994. Sugar Salem High School has a graduation rate of 97 percent. In 2013, it became a National Blue Ribbon School.
Sugar-Salem competes in athletics in IHSAA Class 3A and is a member of the Mountain Rivers Conference. It has received many sportsmanship awards in boys’ and girls’ basketball, volleyball, cross country, wrestling, track & field, and soccer.
