Summary:
The city of Cobb, California has only one public school, Cobb Mountain Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten to 6th grade. The school is part of the Middletown Unified District, which is ranked 856 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Cobb Mountain Elementary does not appear to be a standout school in the region. The school's performance on standardized tests, such as the Smarter Balanced Assessments and the California Science Test (CAST), is generally below the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 34.8% is quite high, indicating potential challenges in student engagement and attendance. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the past three years, from 2,477 out of 5,883 California elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 3,246 out of 5,862 in 2023-2024, with a corresponding decrease in its SchoolDigger star rating from 3 to 2 stars.
The data suggests that Cobb Mountain Elementary may face some challenges in terms of academic performance, student demographics, and attendance. The school has a high percentage of students (51.11%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's below-average performance on standardized tests, particularly in Mathematics, suggests that there may be opportunities for the school to focus on improving instructional practices and student support in these subject areas. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rate is a concern and may be an area that the school and district need to address to improve student engagement and learning outcomes.
