Summary:
The Windsor Unified school district in California is home to three elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a mix of performance across these schools, with some standout successes and areas for improvement.
Cali Calmecac Language Academy stands out as the largest school with 1,168 students, but it also has the highest chronic absenteeism rate at 23.5% and the lowest performance on standardized tests compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Brooks Elementary shows stronger academic performance, outperforming the district and state in 5th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, all three schools face challenges with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic factors that may impact student learning.
Across the district, chronic absenteeism is a significant concern, with Mattie Washburn Elementary having the highest rate at 34.4%. Additionally, the schools struggle with proficiency in Spanish Language Arts assessments, suggesting a need to address language development and support for students. While Brooks Elementary emerges as a relative standout, the district as a whole has room for improvement to ensure all students receive the support they need to succeed.
