Summary:
The Lewiston Independent District in Idaho is home to 7 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools vary in their academic performance, with Camelot Elementary and Orchards Elementary standing out as top-performing schools in the district and the state.
Camelot Elementary is the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 25th out of 337 Idaho elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its students significantly outperform the district and state averages in math, science, and English language arts proficiency. Orchards Elementary also stands out with a 4-star rating and strong academic performance, particularly in math. Meanwhile, McSorley Elementary has seen significant improvement, moving from a 3-star to a 4-star rating in recent years.
Despite the strong performance of some schools, the data reveals significant gaps in academic achievement between the top-performing and lower-performing schools in the district. Additionally, the district as a whole performs above the state average in math and English language arts but lags behind in science proficiency. The wide range in free and reduced-price lunch rates across the schools suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in academic outcomes, and further analysis could explore the relationship between student demographics and school performance.
