Waukena Joint Union Elementary


Summary:

Waukena Joint Union Elementary is the sole school in the Waukena Joint Union Elementary School District, serving grades K-8 in Tulare, California. With a total enrollment of 214 students, the school's performance reveals some areas of concern, particularly in academic achievement and socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student outcomes.

Academically, Waukena Joint Union Elementary generally lags behind state averages in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics proficiency rates, with the exception of a few grade levels. The school's science proficiency rates are also significantly lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 12.8% is higher than the state average, which can negatively impact student learning and progress.

Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as 77.57% of Waukena Joint Union Elementary students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income population. This factor may contribute to the lower academic performance observed, as research has shown that students from low-income families often face additional challenges that can impact their educational outcomes. Addressing these challenges and implementing targeted interventions could help the school improve its overall performance and better support the educational needs of its students.
