Summary:
The Emmett Independent District in Idaho serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district encompasses both urban and rural areas, leading to a diverse range of school performance and student demographics.
Among the standout schools in the district, Kenneth J Carberry Elementary consistently ranks as one of the top elementary schools, with high test scores and a 3-star rating. Emmett High School, the largest high school in the district, also performs well academically with a 3-star rating and a 82.3% 4-year graduation rate. In contrast, smaller rural schools like Sweet Montour Elementary and Ola Elementary face unique challenges, such as higher rates of poverty and lower test scores.
The data reveals significant variation in school performance within the Emmett Independent District, with some schools like Shadow Butte Elementary and Black Canyon Junior/Senior High School lagging behind the district's top performers. Additionally, Emmett Middle School has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, which warrants further investigation. The district's high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, especially at the lower-performing schools, suggest potential equity concerns that may be impacting student achievement.
