Summary:
The Mother Lode Union Elementary school district in California consists of two schools: Indian Creek Elementary and Herbert C. Green Middle. Both schools have consistently ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state, indicating an overall low performance across the district.
Indian Creek Elementary, the district's only elementary school, has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.5% and significantly below-average test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with only around 30-40% of students proficient or better. Similarly, Herbert C. Green Middle, the district's sole middle school, has a chronic absenteeism rate of 25.6% and test scores that are substantially below the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with only around 20-40% of students proficient or better.
The high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, around 50% for both schools, suggest that the district serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the schools' performance. Addressing the district's challenges, such as chronic absenteeism, implementing targeted academic interventions, and exploring ways to better support the socioeconomic needs of the student population, will likely be crucial in improving student outcomes and providing a high-quality education to the community.
