Summary:
The KIPP Compton Community District contains a single elementary school, KIPP Compton Community, which serves students in grades K-5. The school's performance data paints a concerning picture, with consistently low academic achievement, high chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting the school's ability to provide a high-quality education.
KIPP Compton Community is ranked 4900 out of 5862 California elementary schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on Smarter Balanced Assessments are significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas, with only around 20-40% of students scoring proficient or better compared to the state average. The school's Science (CAST) proficiency rate is also well below the state average at 18.82%, compared to 30.7% statewide. Additionally, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 57.5%, which is much higher than the state average.
The data suggests that KIPP Compton Community faces significant challenges, including a high percentage of students (86.03%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 36.7 to 1, which may limit the ability of teachers to provide individualized attention and support to students. Addressing these issues will likely require a multi-faceted approach, including targeted interventions, increased resources, and a focus on improving the overall learning environment and support systems for students.
