Summary:
The Kimberly District in Idaho is home to two elementary schools: Stricker Elementary School and Kimberly Elementary School. While both schools are performing reasonably well, Stricker Elementary stands out as the higher-performing school overall, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger compared to Kimberly Elementary's 2-star rating.
Stricker Elementary has higher proficiency rates in ISAT Math and English Language Arts across all grades, and its student demographics show a higher percentage of white students (83.33%) compared to Kimberly Elementary (74.27%). However, Kimberly Elementary has a higher percentage of Hispanic students (23.94%) compared to Stricker (13.33%).
Both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates exceeding 16%. Additionally, Kimberly Elementary spends more per student ($7,119) compared to Stricker ($6,272), yet this higher spending does not translate to better academic performance. The Kimberly District may need to examine equity and access issues, as well as the allocation and utilization of resources, to ensure all students receive a high-quality education.
