Summary

Oregon Trail Elementary School is a public elementary school in Twin Falls, Idaho, serving 486 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Twin Falls School District, which is ranked 58 out of 96 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past several years, Oregon Trail Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Idaho elementary schools, with a ranking between 148 and 335 out of the state's 337 elementary schools. The school has received a 0 or 1 star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past 10 school years, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state. This is due to the school's consistently low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students it serves.

In contrast, nearby schools in the Twin Falls School District, such as Rock Creek Elementary and Pillar Falls Elementary, significantly outperform Oregon Trail Elementary School in academic achievement, with much higher proficiency rates in math, science, and English language arts, as well as lower chronic absenteeism rates and a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Addressing the challenges faced by Oregon Trail Elementary School will be crucial for the school to improve and provide a better educational experience for its students.
