Reagan Elementary School

Summary:

Reagan Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Nampa, Idaho, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 543. The school is part of the Nampa School District, which is ranked 69 out of 77 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past several years, Reagan Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Idaho elementary schools, with a current ranking of 193 out of 301 schools and a 2-star rating.

Reagan Elementary has a more diverse student population compared to some of the nearby schools, with a higher percentage of Hispanic (23.94%) and two or more races (11.05%) students. However, the school faces significant challenges, including a higher chronic absenteeism rate (25.0%) compared to the state average and lower academic performance, as measured by ISAT test scores, across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in Math (38.6%) and English Language Arts (48.2%) were lower than the Nampa School District (27.2% and 40.9%, respectively) and the state of Idaho (42.2% and 53.3%, respectively).

When compared to other elementary schools in the Nampa School District, Reagan Elementary generally performs worse academically. For instance, Lake Ridge Elementary outperforms Reagan Elementary in both Math and English Language Arts proficiency rates. Additionally, Reagan Elementary's higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, as indicated by the school's free/reduced lunch rate of 37.38%, may be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance. Addressing these challenges and learning from the successes of nearby higher-performing schools could be crucial in improving the overall quality of education at Reagan Elementary.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
