Summary:
The city of Morongo Valley, California has only one public elementary school, Morongo Valley Elementary, which serves grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 183 students. The school is part of the Morongo Unified School District, which is ranked 1036 out of 1568 school districts in California and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Morongo Valley Elementary's academic performance is mixed compared to the district and state averages. In English Language Arts/Literacy, the school's proficiency rates range from 34.38% to 53.85%, which is generally higher than the district average but lower than the state average. In Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates range from 10% to 42.86%, which is mostly higher than the district average but lower than the state average. However, in Science, the school's proficiency rates are around 20%, which is lower than both the district and state averages. The school also has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 19.4% and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 66.12%.
While Morongo Valley Elementary outperforms the district in some areas, its overall academic performance is still below the state average. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rate, providing additional support for the predominantly low-income student population, and exploring ways to reduce the slightly higher student-teacher ratio of 22.5 should be priorities for the school and district to improve student outcomes.
