Summary:
The West Bonner County District in Idaho is home to three elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools, Priest River Elementary School, Idaho Hill Elementary School, and Priest Lake Elementary School, exhibit varying levels of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation.
Among the three schools, Idaho Hill Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 124 out of 252 Idaho elementary schools and receiving a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. This school outperforms the district and state averages in English Language Arts proficiency for all grades and 3rd grade. In contrast, Priest River Elementary School consistently underperforms the district and state averages in Math and English Language Arts proficiency.
The data also reveals disparities in student demographics and resource allocation. Priest Lake Elementary School has the smallest student population and the lowest percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients, as well as the lowest student-teacher ratio. However, this school also has the highest chronic absenteeism rate, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. Overall, the data highlights the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to the observed differences in academic performance and resource allocation among the elementary schools in the West Bonner County District.
