The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages across multiple academic measures, ranking in the bottom half of California elementary schools for the past 3 years and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Bella Mente Montessori Academy has a chronic absenteeism rate of 33.3%, which is quite high, and over 55% of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the school likely faces socioeconomic challenges that can impact academic performance. The school's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are all below the state averages, sometimes significantly so.
