Summary

Stricker Elementary School in Kimberly, ID, serves 434 students in grades K–5 and is part of the Kimberly District. The school currently ranks in the middle of Idaho elementary schools, coming in at the 42nd percentile after a dip from the prior year. It serves a comparatively lower-poverty student population than many nearby schools, with about 31% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch.

Stricker's math scores (47.3% proficient) edge out both the district and state averages, but ELA scores (47.3% proficient) trail the state average of 54%. The biggest red flag for parents is early literacy: just 33.3% of 3rd graders are proficient in reading, well below the state average of 48.5% and lower than nearby schools like Sawtooth Elementary and Pillar Falls Elementary. The good news is that by 5th grade, Stricker students post a strong 64.6% ELA proficiency rate, above the state and district averages. Science is another soft spot, with 5th-grade proficiency at 38.1%, well behind Sawtooth at 63.2% and Pillar Falls at 61.4%.

The school has the lowest per-pupil spending among nearby schools at $6,272 and a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 17.7. Chronic absenteeism affects about 1 in 7 students (15.1%), above the state average of 13.8%. In a direct comparison with Kimberly Elementary, just 0.79 miles away, Stricker has lower poverty and better attendance but still trails its same-district counterpart on most academic metrics. For parents, the bottom line is that Stricker is a capable mid-tier school with strong later-grade ELA outcomes, but early literacy and science are clear areas needing improvement.
