Three Rivers Charter

Summary:

Three Rivers Charter is a public charter elementary school in Fort Bragg, California, serving 82 students in grades 1-8. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with strengths in English Language Arts and Science, but challenges in Mathematics. In 2022-2023, Three Rivers Charter's English Language Arts proficiency was below the state average, except for 7th grade, while its Mathematics proficiency was below the state average across all grade levels.

One significant concern is the school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.9% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, Three Rivers Charter has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 67.07% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. The school's student-teacher ratio of 20.5 is relatively high compared to nearby schools. When comparing Three Rivers Charter to other schools in the area, it generally performs lower than Mendocino K-8, the largest nearby school, which serves a broader grade range and has higher overall academic performance.

While Three Rivers Charter has some strengths, such as higher Science proficiency compared to the state average, addressing the school's low Mathematics proficiency and high chronic absenteeism should be priorities. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds suggests a need for additional resources and support to address any barriers to learning. By understanding the school's context and the factors influencing its performance, strategies can be developed to enhance student outcomes at Three Rivers Charter within the Three Rivers Charter District.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
