Summary:
The KIPP Esperanza High District consists of a single public charter high school, KIPP Esperanza High, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 220 students.
KIPP Esperanza High faces several challenges in terms of academic performance, student attendance, and socioeconomic factors. The school is ranked 1217 out of 2323 California high schools for the 2023-2024 school year, with a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. Its proficiency rates in Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST/Science are consistently lower than the statewide averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 20.7%, which could be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance.
Socioeconomic challenges also play a role, as 87.73% of the students at KIPP Esperanza High are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population. The school's low rankings, academic performance, and high chronic absenteeism suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement in areas such as instructional strategies, student engagement, and targeted support programs to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
