Summary:
The Glenns Ferry Joint District in Idaho operates three schools: Glenns Ferry Elementary School, Glenns Ferry High School, and Glenns Ferry Middle School. The data indicates that the district is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, with all three schools performing below the state average on various academic measures.
None of the schools in the Glenns Ferry Joint District stand out as clear performers. All three schools are ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state and are rated 1 out of 5 stars by School Digger. The schools have consistently low proficiency rates in ISAT Math, Science, and English Language Arts, with the highest proficiency rate being 52.6% in English Language Arts at Glenns Ferry High School, compared to the state average of 60%. Additionally, the district has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 15.0%, which is higher than the state average.
The data also reveals that the Glenns Ferry Joint District faces challenges related to the economic disadvantages of its student population. The elementary and middle schools have high free and reduced lunch rates, indicating a significant portion of the student population faces economic challenges. The district's relatively low student-teacher ratios and per-student spending suggest that the district may need to examine how resources are allocated and utilized to support student learning and achievement. Overall, the Glenns Ferry Joint District must address the low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and economic disadvantages of its student population to provide a high-quality education to all students.
