Summary:

The city of Crescent City, California is home to 11 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 3 alternative schools. The schools in this area serve a population with significant economic disadvantages, as indicated by the consistently high free and reduced-price lunch rates across the district.

Among the standout schools in Crescent City is Uncharted Shores Academy, a public charter school with consistently strong academic performance and a very low chronic absenteeism rate. Another high-performing school is Redwood Elementary, which has above-average performance compared to the district and state, particularly in 5th and 6th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with some schools, such as Sunset High and Del Norte Community, struggling with low proficiency rates. The district as a whole lags behind the state average in proficiency rates for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, particularly at the alternative schools. These findings suggest a need for district leaders to develop targeted strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the lower-performing schools and support student success across the district.
