The data also indicates that Alma Fuerte Public District serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 68.28% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.1%, which is higher than the state average. These factors are often associated with lower academic achievement and may be contributing to the school's poor performance. To address these challenges, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and support systems, such as professional development for teachers, additional academic support for struggling students, and efforts to engage families and the community.
