Summary:
Sherwood Montessori District is home to a single public charter elementary school, Sherwood Montessori, which serves grades K-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its ranking ranging from 2473 out of 5862 California elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 4815 in 2021-2022. While Sherwood Montessori's overall test scores are generally on par with or slightly above the state averages, there are some areas, such as 3rd grade English Language Arts and 6th grade ELA and Math, where the school's proficiency rates are lower than the state.
One notable challenge for Sherwood Montessori is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.6%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 43.88% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This demographic factor may influence the school's academic outcomes and require targeted support and resources.
Despite these challenges, Sherwood Montessori has a relatively small class size, with a student-teacher ratio of 12.3, which is lower than the state average. This suggests that the school may be able to provide more individualized attention to its students. Overall, the analysis of Sherwood Montessori reveals a school with mixed performance, facing challenges related to student attendance and serving a population with a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve the school's academic outcomes and overall ranking.
