Summary:
The KIPP Vida Preparatory Academy District consists of a single elementary school, KIPP Vida Preparatory Academy, which serves grades K-4 with a total enrollment of 568 students. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on Smarter Balanced Assessments, has declined over the past three years and is consistently below the statewide averages in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics across all grade levels.
Additionally, the school faces significant challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 47.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school also serves a high-needs population, with 92.78% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may present additional obstacles in supporting student learning and achievement.
While the school's ranking and rating have declined in recent years, going from 4692 out of 5883 schools in 2021-2022 to 3666 out of 5862 schools in the 2023-2024 school year, and being rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, the lack of comparative data within the district makes it difficult to draw meaningful conclusions about the school's performance relative to its peers. Addressing the issues of academic performance, chronic absenteeism, and socioeconomic challenges could be crucial for improving the school's overall outcomes and providing a high-quality education for its students.
