Summary:
The city of New Plymouth, Idaho, has a single elementary school, New Plymouth Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. As the only elementary school in the New Plymouth District, it provides the primary educational foundation for the community's youth.
New Plymouth Elementary has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, indicating a stable level of performance. The school's proficiency rates in ISAT Math, Science, and English Language Arts are generally on par with or slightly below the state and district averages. While the school's 38.37% free and reduced-price lunch rate suggests a significant portion of the student population comes from low-income families, the school's per-student spending of $8,316 and student-teacher ratio of 21:1 are within typical ranges for the state.
One area of concern is the school's 15.0% chronic absenteeism rate, which is relatively high and may be a contributing factor to its academic performance. The school's leadership and the New Plymouth District may need to implement targeted interventions to address this challenge and support student success.
