Summary

New Hampton Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 459 students in grades PK-4 in the New Hampton Community School District in New Hampton, Iowa. The school has consistently performed above the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics on standardized tests, with 79.1% of 4th graders proficient or better in ELA and 88.1% proficient or better in Math in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to state averages of 76% and 74.3%, respectively.

However, the school has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.3% in 2021-2022 to 21.6% in 2023-2024, an area the school should focus on improving. Additionally, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch has increased from 32.26% in 2021-2022 to 40.31% in 2023-2024, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students who may require additional resources and support.

When compared to nearby schools, New Hampton Elementary School generally outperforms them in test scores, particularly in Mathematics, where 88.1% of 4th graders were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 60-74% at the nearby schools. However, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past several years, from a high of 127 out of 574 Iowa elementary schools in 2016-2017 to a ranking of 293 out of 576 in 2024-2025, suggesting the need for a closer examination of its practices and strategies to maintain its academic excellence and competitiveness.
