Greenhurst Elementary School

Summary:

Greenhurst Elementary School is a public elementary school in Nampa, Idaho, serving 259 students in grades PK-5. Despite being part of the Nampa School District, which is ranked 69 out of 77 districts in the state, Greenhurst Elementary has consistently underperformed, ranking in the bottom quarter of Idaho elementary schools with a 1-star rating.

One key differentiator is Greenhurst's racial makeup, with a higher percentage of White students (56.37%) compared to nearby schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school also struggles with significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates, with 27.6% of students chronically absent, compared to the district average of 24.4% and the state average of 19.1%. Academically, Greenhurst consistently underperforms, with only 24.4% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in ISAT Math, compared to 36.9% in the district and 49.6% statewide. Additionally, Greenhurst has a high percentage of students (55.98%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a greater proportion of students from low-income families.

Despite these challenges, Greenhurst's small student-teacher ratio of 16:1 could be an opportunity to provide more individualized attention and support. Targeted interventions and resources to address the specific needs of the school's student population may help drive academic improvement. However, the school's declining performance over the past decade, from a ranking of 214 out of 226 Idaho elementary schools in 2014-2015 to its current ranking of 252 out of 301, suggests a concerning trend that will need to be addressed to ensure Greenhurst Elementary provides a high-quality education for its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
