Summary:

Zip code 83328, encompassing the city of Filer, Idaho, is home to just one elementary school: Filer Elementary School, part of the Filer District. This PK–3 school serves 397 students in a moderately sized building with a student-teacher ratio of 16.1:1.

Filer Elementary serves a community with notable economic need, as 47.1% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 13.8% matches the state average exactly and is 3.1 percentage points better than the district's 16.9% rate, indicating relatively stable attendance. On the most recent 3rd-grade ISAT (2025-2026), English Language Arts proficiency stood at 46.6%, just shy of the state's 48.5%. Math, however, is a significant concern: only 35.9% of 3rd graders were proficient, compared to 50.9% statewide. For all grades in 2024-2025, math proficiency was 37.6% versus 43.1% statewide, and ELA dropped to 28.7%, well below the district (51.0%) and state (53.9%)—though this reflects a different cohort and year.

Historical state rankings from a decade ago consistently placed the school in the middle tier, with 2-star ratings and percentile rankings between the 35th and 48th. The school and district test scores being identical for 3rd grade suggests Filer Elementary drives the district's elementary results. With $7,489 per-student spending, the school has moderate resources. Overall, Filer Elementary is a school with stable attendance and near-average third-grade reading, but math proficiency is a clear area needing attention, and the broader ELA picture across all grades warrants monitoring.
