Summary:
The Aspire Slauson Academy Charter District contains a single elementary school, Aspire Slauson Academy Charter, which serves students in grades K-5. The school has consistently performed well below the state average on standardized assessments, ranking in the bottom 10% of California elementary schools. With a chronic absenteeism rate of 28.1% and a high student-teacher ratio of 34.6 to 1, the school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly low-income student population.
Aspire Slauson Academy Charter has received a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating that it is one of the lowest-performing schools in the state. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 21.15% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, and just 10.78% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 47.04% and 35.54%, respectively. The school's academic performance has remained consistently low over the past few years, suggesting a need for comprehensive interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
The high percentage of students (63.88%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Aspire Slauson Academy Charter suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income community, which can present additional challenges in terms of educational resources and support. Addressing the school's chronic absenteeism and staffing issues, as well as implementing targeted academic interventions, will be crucial in helping the school improve its performance and provide a better learning environment for its students.
