Summary:
The Rocketship Rising Stars District is home to a single high-performing elementary school, Rocketship Rising Stars, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. This school has consistently demonstrated strong academic achievement, ranking in the top 18.5% of all elementary schools in California.
Rocketship Rising Stars outperforms the state average in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency across multiple grade levels. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's ELA proficiency rate was 59.42%, compared to the state average of 47.04%, and its Mathematics proficiency rate was 63.85%, compared to the state average of 35.54%. The school has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years, indicating its overall strong performance.
While Rocketship Rising Stars has achieved impressive academic results, the school faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.4% and a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 33.8 to 1. Additionally, a significant majority (72.51%) of the school's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population. Addressing these areas of concern could help the school continue to support its students and maintain its strong academic standing.
