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
