Summary:
Blue Lake Union Elementary is the sole elementary school serving grades K-8 in the Blue Lake Union Elementary District in California. With a total enrollment of 172 students, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is consistently below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas.
Blue Lake Union Elementary faces several challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.6%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, 65.12% of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. While the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.2 to 1 is slightly lower than the state average, this does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students.
The data suggests that Blue Lake Union Elementary may need to focus on addressing the underlying factors contributing to its academic challenges, such as chronic absenteeism and supporting the needs of economically disadvantaged students. Improving the school's performance in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, where proficiency rates are significantly below the state averages, should be a priority for the district and school leadership.
