Summary:
The ISANA Himalia Academy District is home to a single elementary public charter school, ISANA Himalia Academy, which serves grades K-8. Based on the available data, ISANA Himalia Academy appears to be a low-performing school, ranking 4970 out of 5862 California elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The school faces significant challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 32.3% in 2022-2023, which is substantially higher than the state average. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science are all well below the state averages across all grade levels. For example, 3rd-grade English Language Arts/Literacy proficiency is just 16.95%, and 6th-grade Mathematics proficiency is only 10.59%.
Additionally, ISANA Himalia Academy serves a high-poverty student population, with 88.1% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. This, combined with the high chronic absenteeism rate, likely contributes to the school's academic struggles. Despite these challenges, the school's performance has remained consistently low over the past three school years, with no significant improvements observed, suggesting the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of effective interventions to improve student outcomes.
