Summary:
The Lone Pine Unified School District has only one elementary school, Lo-Inyo Elementary, serving students in grades K-6. This school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, now ranking 3888 out of 5862 California elementary schools. Lo-Inyo Elementary's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.
One significant concern is the high chronic absenteeism rate at Lo-Inyo Elementary, which reached 23.5% in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 63.03%, indicating a population facing significant socioeconomic challenges. The student-teacher ratio at Lo-Inyo Elementary, at 18.3, is slightly higher than the typical recommended ratio for elementary schools, which may also be a factor in the school's academic performance.
Overall, the analysis of the lone elementary school in the Lone Pine Unified School District reveals several areas of concern, including declining performance, high chronic absenteeism, socioeconomic challenges, and a slightly higher student-teacher ratio. These findings suggest that the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
