Summary

Harrison Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Twin Falls, Idaho, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 370. The school is part of the Twin Falls District, which is ranked 58 out of 96 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Harrison Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Idaho elementary schools over the past several years, with a ranking of 334 out of 337 schools for the 2024-2025 school year and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance has declined, with its ranking dropping from 147 out of 171 schools in 2018-2019 to its current low ranking. This is largely due to the school's consistently low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and a high proportion of students from low-income families.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Pillar Falls Elementary and Sawtooth Elementary, which are also part of the Twin Falls District, consistently outperform Harrison Elementary in academic proficiency rates, with proficiency levels around 50-65% in Math and English Language Arts. These nearby schools also have lower chronic absenteeism rates and a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting that addressing the underlying factors, such as socioeconomic challenges and high absenteeism, may be crucial in improving student outcomes at Harrison Elementary.
