Gateway International

Summary:

Gateway International is a public charter elementary school serving 577 students in grades K-8 in Sacramento, California. It is part of the Gateway International District, which is ranked 633 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gateway International has several notable strengths, particularly in serving its English Language Learner (ELL) and low socioeconomic status (SES) student populations. The school consistently ranks in the top 10-15% of California elementary schools for ELL students, with a 4-star rating in 2021-2022 and a 5-star rating in 2021-2022. Additionally, Gateway International has shown strong performance for low SES students, ranking in the top 15-20% of California elementary schools in this category in recent years. However, the school faces challenges in addressing performance gaps, with its male students lagging behind their female counterparts and its white student population performing significantly below the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, Gateway International generally outperforms the lower-performing schools, such as Cottage Elementary and Isador Cohen Elementary, but lags behind the higher-performing schools, such as Mariemont Elementary and California Montessori Project - Capitol Campus. Additionally, Gateway International has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 22.0% in 2022-2023, which is significantly above the state average, and a high student-teacher ratio of 22.3, which may be contributing to its mixed academic performance.

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.
