Minico High School, also known as Minidoka County High School, is a four-year public secondary school in Minidoka County, Idaho, operated by the Minidoka County Joint School District #331. The school colors are red and gold and the mascot is a Spartan.
Minico High School opened 62 years ago in 1955, consolidating four high schools: Rupert, Paul, Heyburn, and Acequia. Towns in the MHS jurisdiction include: Acequia, Burley (Minidoka Co. portion), Heyburn, Minidoka, Paul, and Rupert. The campus is located on State Highway 25 (West 100 South) between the cities of Rupert and Paul, just west of the Rupert Country Club.
The name Minico is a contraction of "Minidoka County." The only traditional high school in the county, its jurisdiction includes the entire county, as well as the rural Yale area in the panhandle of southeastern Blaine County and the very northeastern part of Lincoln County, near Kimama. MHS is fed by two middle schools: East Minico in Rupert and West Minico in Paul.
The elevation of the campus is 4,150 feet (1,265 m) above sea level.
Minico offers a variety of clubs and student oriented programs including: Key Club, Leo Club, Student Body/Council Government, Business Club, Young Republicans, Young Democrats, French Club, Spanish Club, FCCLA, Speech Arts Club, Ski Club, Mountain Bike Club, and FFA. Minico also features a cheerleading squad and the Spartan Dance Force. The school's student newspaper is The Spartan Chronicle. Minico also offers three music organizations: band, choir and orchestra.
