Snake River Online

Summary:

Snake River Online is a public virtual elementary school serving grades K-8 in Blackfoot, Idaho, with an enrollment of 975 students. The school has a predominantly white student population, with over 90% of students identifying as white, and has struggled academically, ranking in the bottom half of Idaho elementary schools and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past two school years.

Snake River Online consistently underperforms compared to the state and its own Snake River District on standardized tests, with only 31.7% of students proficient or better in ISAT Math and 43.2% proficient or better in ISAT English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 42.2% and 53.3%, respectively. The school's four-year graduation rate also dropped significantly from 76.2% in 2021-2022 to 0.0% in 2022-2023. Additionally, Snake River Online has a very high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 47.6 to 62.6 over the past three school years, much higher than the nearby schools like Rockford Elementary School and Riverside Elementary School, which generally outperform Snake River Online on academic measures.

The school's predominantly white student population, consistent underperformance across grade levels, and high student-teacher ratio suggest the need for a closer examination of the factors contributing to these issues and the implementation of targeted interventions to improve student outcomes. While the reasons for the school's struggles are not entirely clear, the data indicates that Snake River Online faces significant challenges that set it apart from the nearby schools in the Snake River District.

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.
