Fenton Avenue Charter District

Fenton Avenue Charter is the sole elementary school in the Fenton Avenue Charter District, serving grades K-5 with an enrollment of 634 students. While the school has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its academic performance on standardized tests is generally below the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate is relatively high at 5.0%.

Fenton Avenue Charter has seen fluctuating statewide rankings in recent years, ranging from 2,543 out of 5,874 California elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 2,887 out of 5,883 in 2021-2022. The school's test scores on the Smarter Balanced Assessments and the California Science Test (CAST) are mixed, with some grade levels and subject areas performing better than others compared to the state averages. Additionally, a high percentage (87.22%) of Fenton Avenue Charter's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population.

While Fenton Avenue Charter does not appear to be a standout school in the district or statewide, the school's 3-star rating and fluctuating statewide ranking suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement with the right strategies and resources. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate and inconsistent academic performance across grade levels and subject areas are areas that the school and district may need to address to provide a more consistent, high-quality education for its students.
