Summary

Liberty Elementary School is a PK–6 public elementary school in Boise, Idaho, serving 403 students in the Boise Independent District. The school holds a 4-star SchoolDigger rating and ranks 99th out of 346 Idaho elementary schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 71st percentile statewide. Academically, Liberty outperforms both the district and state in core subjects: 55% of students were proficient in math versus 46.4% districtwide and 43.1% statewide, while 63.5% were proficient in English Language Arts versus 53.3% districtwide and 54% statewide.

Compared with nearby schools, Liberty is solid but not at the top of its local cluster. Riverside Elementary School, less than half a mile away, posts notably higher scores (69.6% math, 73.3% ELA), and Dallas Harris Elementary School, Adams Elementary School, and Roosevelt Elementary School also outperform Liberty despite similar or lower poverty rates. At the same time, Liberty beats several nearby options, including Trail Wind Elementary, Garfield Elementary School, Owyhee Elementary School, and Peace Valley Charter School. One notable concern is chronic absenteeism: 21.7% of Liberty students were chronically absent, well above the state rate of 13.8% and higher than most neighboring schools.

Liberty's performance is balanced across student subgroups, with both boys and girls ranking in the top quartile statewide. However, math proficiency has slipped from 61.7% in 2022–2023 to 55.0% in 2025–2026, and 5th-grade science proficiency (44%) falls below the district average (48.1%). Grade-level results are uneven, with 4th-grade math strong at 64.7% but 5th-grade math dipping to 48.8%. Overall, Liberty remains a solid, above-average school, but improving attendance and shoring up math and science could help it keep pace with its highest-achieving neighbors.
