Summary:
The Coast Unified school district has only one middle school, Santa Lucia Middle, which serves students in grades 6-8. Located in a coastal region, the school faces some unique challenges and opportunities.
Santa Lucia Middle's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 2 to 3 out of 5 stars on the SchoolDigger scale. While the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy are generally higher than the state average, its performance in Mathematics is lower. This suggests a need to focus on improving math instruction and support for students. Additionally, the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients.
Despite these challenges, Santa Lucia Middle has a relatively small student population of 121 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.4. This small size and personalized attention could be leveraged to improve academic outcomes. Overall, the analysis of the data for Santa Lucia Middle provides insights into the school's performance, demographics, and potential areas for improvement, which the district and school leaders can use to enhance the educational experience for students in the Coast Unified community.
