Summary:
The Valley Center-Pauma Unified school district in California is home to 4 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a mixed picture, with some schools performing relatively well while others face significant challenges.
The standout school in the district is Lilac, which has the highest proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other schools and the district and state averages. In contrast, Pauma Elementary struggles, with proficiency rates well below the district and state, particularly in 3rd grade Mathematics. The district also faces high chronic absenteeism rates, with Pauma Elementary and Valley Center Primary reporting the highest rates.
Economically, the schools serve populations with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, ranging from 47.91% at Valley Center Primary to 76.95% at Pauma Elementary. This suggests the district may be facing challenges in providing equitable resources and support to all students. Addressing these disparities and improving overall academic performance will be crucial for the district's future success.
