Summary:
The Princeton school district in California consists of two schools - Princeton Elementary and Princeton High. Both schools have consistently performed poorly compared to state averages across a range of metrics, including rankings, test scores, and student demographics.
Princeton Elementary has ranked in the bottom 15% of California elementary schools in recent years, with only 32.65% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 47.04%. Similarly, Princeton High has ranked in the bottom 25% of California high schools, with only 25% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 55.73%. Both schools have high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student outcomes.
Despite the challenges, Princeton High has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 92.3% and a 0% dropout rate, which are positive indicators. However, both schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, with Princeton Elementary at 7.0% and Princeton High at 16.1%. Addressing the underlying issues and implementing targeted interventions will be crucial to improving outcomes for the students in the Princeton Joint Unified school district.
