The data suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in student outcomes, as schools with higher free/reduced lunch rates tend to have lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism. However, the strong performance of Culver City High School indicates that the district's middle school, Culver City Middle, is effectively preparing students for the rigors of high school. Overall, the Culver City Unified School District outperforms the state averages on various metrics, showcasing the strengths of its top-performing institutions while also highlighting the challenges faced by some of the lower-performing schools in the area.
