Janet L. Young Elementary

Summary:

Janet L. Young Elementary is a public elementary school in Fresno, California, serving 655 students in grades K-6 as part of the Clovis Unified school district.

This school consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics on the Smarter Balanced Assessments, with particularly strong performance in 4th and 6th grade ELA and 4th grade Math. Janet L. Young Elementary also ranks in the top 18% of California elementary schools for its Hispanic student population, though its performance for Asian students is relatively low. The school has seen a significant decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 22.9% in 2021-2022 to 13.5% in 2022-2023, and a decline in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 50.7% to 36.79% over the past two years.

Compared to nearby schools in the Clovis Unified district, Janet L. Young Elementary generally outperforms in ELA and Mathematics proficiency rates. However, the school's performance for Asian students is notably lower than the nearby schools, suggesting a need to investigate and address any underlying issues for this subgroup. The improvement in chronic absenteeism and the changing socioeconomic profile of the student body are also noteworthy trends that warrant further consideration in the school's strategic planning.

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.
