Additionally, the school's science proficiency rates, as measured by the CAST exam, are also below the state average for 5th and 8th grade.
Further, Multicultural Learning Center has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average.

These factors may be contributing to the school's academic struggles and should be considered when developing strategies for improvement.
