Summary:
The El Rio Community District has only one school, El Rio Community, which is a public charter school serving grades K-8. While the school's performance is somewhat inconsistent, with strong 4th grade ELA scores but low 5th grade math scores, it appears to be performing around the average level for California schools, with a district rank of 614 out of 1,568.
El Rio Community has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.1 to 1, which is better than the average for many schools. However, the school faces some challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 46.5%, which is significantly above the state average. Additionally, the school's low free/reduced lunch rate of 13.79% suggests it may not be serving the most economically disadvantaged students in the community, despite being a public charter school.
Overall, El Rio Community appears to be a relatively average-performing school in its district and state, with some bright spots but also areas that need improvement. Addressing the school's attendance issues and ensuring it is serving the needs of the entire community should be priorities for the district and school leadership.
