Sparrow Academy District

The Sparrow Academy District is home to a single elementary school, Sparrow Academy, which serves grades K-8. While the school has some areas of strength, such as higher-than-average proficiency rates in certain grade levels and subject areas, it also faces challenges, including below-average proficiency rates in other areas and a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate.

Sparrow Academy is ranked 532 out of 1,568 districts in California and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Its statewide ranking for elementary schools has fluctuated between 1,973 and 3,082 out of around 5,800 schools over the past few years, suggesting inconsistent academic performance. The school's proficiency rates on standardized tests vary significantly by grade level and subject area, with some grades and subjects performing well above the state average and others performing below.

Additionally, Sparrow Academy has a chronic absenteeism rate of 26.2%, which is higher than the state average. This could be a contributing factor to the school's uneven academic performance. The school also serves a population with a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 28.82%, which may present challenges in addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged students. Overall, while Sparrow Academy has some areas of strength, it faces a mix of academic and demographic challenges that may require targeted interventions and support to improve its performance and outcomes for students.
