Summary:
The New Plymouth District in Idaho has one elementary school, New Plymouth Elementary, serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school serves a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 79.17% White and 16.89% Hispanic students, and a relatively high percentage (41.67%) of students from low-income families.
While New Plymouth Elementary has some positive metrics, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in science and English language arts, it also faces some challenges. The school's math proficiency rate of 42.6% is lower than the district average, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 14.5% is relatively high, which can negatively impact student learning and achievement. Compared to the overall New Plymouth District, the school's performance is generally lower, suggesting that the district as a whole may be performing better than the individual school.
Despite these areas of concern, New Plymouth Elementary has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, ranking in the middle of the pack among Idaho elementary schools. By addressing the school's challenges, such as improving math proficiency and reducing chronic absenteeism, the school and district leaders can work to enhance the educational experience and outcomes for the students.
