Summary:
The city of Lindsay, California is home to 10 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 6 elementary schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals a complex landscape, with significant disparities in academic performance across the district.
Some schools stand out as bright spots, such as Reagan Elementary, which has the highest performance on English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments compared to the district and state averages, and Kennedy Elementary, which has the highest 3rd grade ELA proficiency. However, other schools like Lindsay Community Day struggle with very low test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates.
Across the district, graduation rates vary, with Lindsay Senior High maintaining a strong 95.4% 4-year graduation rate, while the alternative John J. Cairns Continuation school has a high 97.4% graduation rate. Addressing the challenges at these alternative and continuation schools, as well as tackling the district-wide issues of chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic factors, will be crucial for the Lindsay Unified school district to improve outcomes for all students.
