Elementary Schools in Richmond Elementary

There is only one elementary school located in the Richmond Elementary district in Susanville, California - Richmond Elementary. This school serves students from Kindergarten through 8th grade and has an enrollment of 191 students. While Richmond Elementary has some positive academic metrics, particularly in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, it also faces challenges in Mathematics and Science performance compared to the state average.

Richmond Elementary's ELA proficiency rates range from 35% to 75% across different grade levels, with the highest proficiency in 8th grade. However, its Mathematics proficiency rates are lower, ranging from 20% to 60%, and its Science proficiency rates are also below average, ranging from 31.82% to 40%. Compared to the state of California, Richmond Elementary's proficiency rates are generally higher in ELA but lower in Mathematics and Science.

The school's ranking has declined over the past few years, dropping from 1611 out of 5862 California elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 2998 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its Math and Science instruction and curriculum, as well as addressing its chronic absenteeism rate of 9.2%. Despite these challenges, Richmond Elementary serves a population with a relatively higher socioeconomic need, which is an important context to consider when interpreting the school's performance and potential support or interventions.
