Summary:
The city of Bangor, California is home to two elementary schools: Bangor Union Elementary and Berry Creek Elementary. While Bangor Union Elementary has a significantly larger enrollment of 69 students compared to Berry Creek Elementary's 30 students, both schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates that exceed the state average.
Academically, Bangor Union Elementary generally outperforms Berry Creek Elementary on standardized test scores, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, both schools lag behind the state average proficiency rates, with the most significant gap in Science. The high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients at both schools, ranging from 72.46% to 90%, suggest that the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by these schools.
The data also reveals differences in student-teacher ratios, with Bangor Union Elementary having a higher ratio of 17.2 compared to Berry Creek Elementary's 10. This may indicate variations in resource allocation and teaching approaches between the two schools. Overall, the data highlights the need for further investigation and targeted strategies to address the academic and attendance challenges faced by these elementary schools in the Bangor area.
