Summary:
The city of Twentynine Palms, California is home to 6 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Morongo Unified School District. While the district as a whole struggles, with a ranking of 1036 out of 1568 districts in California and a 2-star rating, a few standout schools emerge from the data.
Condor Elementary is the top performer, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across most grade levels, as well as the lowest chronic absenteeism rate at 14.2%. It is ranked 2145 out of 5,874 California elementary schools, the highest among Twentynine Palms schools. Twentynine Palms High School also stands out, with the strongest performance in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to district and state averages. It has a 4-year graduation rate of 77.2%, higher than the district average, and is ranked 771 out of 2,323 California high schools, the highest ranking among the Twentynine Palms schools.
However, the other schools in the area face significant challenges, with high chronic absenteeism rates, low test scores, and high rates of economic disadvantage, as indicated by the free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 41.75% to 80.16%. These factors likely contribute to the overall underperformance of the Morongo Unified School District, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic and socioeconomic challenges facing the Twentynine Palms schools.
