Summary:
The Feaster (Mae L.) Charter District consists of a single elementary school, Feaster (Mae L.) Charter, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 1,121 students. The school has consistently performed below the state-wide averages in English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science over the past two school years, ranking in the bottom 30% of California elementary schools.
Feaster (Mae L.) Charter has faced significant challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 27.6% and a high percentage (79.84%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. These factors may be contributing to the school's low academic performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 19.4% in 6th grade Mathematics to 28.46% in 3rd grade English Language Arts/Literacy, well below the state averages.
The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from 3,574 out of 5,883 California elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 4,178 out of 5,862 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school's performance is declining relative to other schools in the state, and addressing the challenges it faces will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to school improvement.
