We develop the total student - spirit, mind, and body. Through a diverse and comprehensive education in the Catholic tradition, students prepare themselves to serve God and others in the world community.  Bishop Kelly High School is focused on high moral, social, academic and athletic standards.  Bishop Kelly enjoys a sterling reputation in Idaho and throughout the Northwest for academic excellence.  Bishop Kelly is well known both for its academic excellence as a school and for the dedication and excellence of its students.  Making the decision on where to attend school is always a difficult choice.  Parents want to make sure that their child is in an environment that challenges him/her, but also provides the support and structure they need to excel.



With a student body of 650 students, Bishop Kelly continues to excel in community service, academic achievement, and athletic prowess.
