Summary

Lewis & Clark Elementary School is a K–5 public elementary school in Pocatello, Idaho, serving 401 students as part of the Pocatello District. The school holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 43rd percentile among Idaho elementary schools, and it serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 67.8% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch.

Despite those challenges, Lewis & Clark has a notable strength: its chronic absenteeism rate of 11.1% is well below both the district (17.9%) and state (13.8%) averages. Academically, the school's 3rd-grade results are genuinely strong, with 62.3% proficient in ELA and 58.0% in math—both above district and state averages. However, those gains fade by 4th and 5th grades, where scores fall below district averages. Overall math proficiency (45.7%) sits just above the district, while ELA (52.2%) trails. Science is the school's most persistent weakness, with just 37.0% of 5th graders proficient vs. 44.5% districtwide. Compared to nearby Chubbuck Elementary School, Lewis & Clark trails in both math and ELA, but it substantially outperforms Jefferson Elementary School in most subjects despite similar poverty levels.

The most encouraging sign is the school's clear upward trajectory: Lewis & Clark has climbed from the 11th percentile in 2020–2021 to the 43rd percentile in 2025–2026. This consistent improvement suggests recent school-level efforts are paying off. However, the school's per-student spending of $6,782 is among the lowest in the area, and the contrast with Edahow Elementary School—just 1.88 miles away and ranking 2nd in Idaho—highlights both the scale of the challenge and the potential for high achievement within the same district. Overall, Lewis & Clark is a solidly average-to-improving school whose strong early-grade results and attendance provide a foundation to build on, though sustained investment in science and upper-elementary instruction will be critical.
