Summary:
The Everest Value elementary school is the sole public charter school serving grades K-8 in the Everest Value District. With a total enrollment of 326 students, Everest Value has consistently ranked in the top half of California elementary schools, reaching as high as 1,725 out of 5,883 schools in 2021-2022. However, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, dropping to 2,348 in 2022-2023 and further to 3,001 in 2023-2024.
Everest Value's academic performance is generally above the state average, with particularly strong results in 3rd and 4th grade English Language Arts and 3rd grade Mathematics. Over 55% of 3rd and 4th graders scored proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state averages of 42.8% and 43.9%, respectively. In Mathematics, 64.29% of 3rd graders at Everest Value were proficient or better, surpassing the state average of 45.64%. However, the school's performance is uneven, with some grade levels, such as 5th and 6th grade Mathematics and 5th and 8th grade Science, scoring significantly lower than the state average.
With a relatively high percentage of students (72.39%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Everest Value serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. This, combined with a student-teacher ratio of 19.3, which is slightly higher than the state average, may present challenges for the school in maintaining its high performance and addressing the unique needs of its student population. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions will be crucial for Everest Value to reach its full potential and ensure all students have access to a quality education.
