Brisbane Elementary

The Brisbane Elementary district in California consists of three schools: two elementary schools (Brisbane Elementary and Panorama Elementary) and one middle school (Lipman Middle). The analysis of the district's school data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with Brisbane Elementary and Lipman Middle standing out as the top-performing schools in the district.

Brisbane Elementary consistently ranks in the top 1,000 elementary schools in California and maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts impressive test scores, with over 60% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics across grade levels, and a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 17.2%. Similarly, Lipman Middle maintains a 4-star rating and is ranked in the top 500 middle schools in California, with strong performance in English Language Arts and a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to Panorama Elementary.

In contrast, Panorama Elementary faces more significant challenges, with lower test scores, a higher chronic absenteeism rate of 24.8%, and a higher percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 29.91%. This suggests that Panorama Elementary may be experiencing more socioeconomic challenges and could benefit from additional support or resources to improve student outcomes. The district as a whole could potentially benefit from sharing best practices and resources between the higher-performing and lower-performing schools to ensure more equitable educational opportunities for all students.
