Summary:
The city of Auberry, California has only one school, Pine Ridge Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, its academic performance is mixed, with some grade levels and subject areas performing above the state average while others fall below.
Pine Ridge Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 27.54% in the 2022-2023 school year, and a student-teacher ratio of 13.8, which is slightly lower than the state average. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy ranged from 41.67% to 50%, while in Mathematics, the rates ranged from 33.33% to 50%, compared to the state averages. In Science, the school's proficiency rates were 28.57% for the end-of-course exam and 33.33% for 5th grade, compared to the state averages of 30.7% and 32.68%, respectively.
One concerning trend is the school's declining statewide ranking, dropping from 1533 out of 5883 California elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 2106 out of 5862 in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 37.8% in the 2022-2023 school year, which is significantly higher than the state average. These factors suggest that the Pine Ridge Elementary district may need to investigate the underlying causes and develop targeted strategies to support student success and improve the school's overall performance.
