Summary

Troy Elementary School is a small, rural school in Troy, Idaho, serving 185 students in grades PK–6 and belonging to the Troy School District, which ranks 6th out of 101 districts in Idaho. The school itself is ranked 37th out of 346 elementary schools statewide, placing it in the 89th percentile—a remarkable standing for a school of its size and location. Academically, Troy substantially outperforms the state: 84.6% of students are proficient in English Language Arts (state: 54.0%) and 69.2% are proficient in Math (state: 43.1%).

Troy's English Language Arts proficiency is the highest among nearby schools, surpassing Palouse Prairie Charter School (77.7%), A B McDonald Elementary School (72.6%), and Lena Whitmore Elementary School (69.6%). In Math, Troy's 69.2% proficiency rate far exceeds rural peers like Potlatch Elementary School (48.6%) and Juliaetta Elementary School (43.9%). Troy achieves these results with the highest student-teacher ratio in the region (16.4 students per teacher), suggesting efficient, high-quality instruction. Even West Park Elementary School, in the larger Moscow district, has a higher free/reduced lunch rate (47.1%) and chronic absenteeism (21.7%) yet still trails Troy academically.

Attendance is another defining strength: Troy's chronic absenteeism rate of 6.8% is roughly half the Idaho average (13.8%), a dramatic improvement from 18.4% a few years ago. The school has also completed a remarkable decade-long turnaround, climbing nearly 200 spots in state rankings. The rising share of economically disadvantaged students (33.5% free/reduced lunch) has not hindered achievement, which continues to climb. One area to watch is 6th-grade math (52.0% proficient), which remains above the state average but noticeably lower than the school's other scores. Given Troy's trajectory and consistent high performance, it stands out as a model for small-town elementary education in northern Idaho.
