Leadore School is a grade K-12 Public School located in Leadore, Idaho.

History

In the late 19th century, prior to Leadore's founding in 1910, there were several log one-room schoolhouses in the area. As Leadore became the area's economic center, a new brick high school was built in Leadore in 1918, replacing the smaller high school, 2 miles to the north, in Junction, Idaho. The new school featured two floors, a gymnasium, ten classrooms, auditorium and an electric light plant.[2] The current school was built in 1956.[8]

Athletics

Leadore Mustangs compete in the 1A division, the smallest division in the Idaho High School Activities Association (IHSAA). They participate in the District V / VI Rocky Mountain Conference.[7]
