Acacia Magnet School for Enriched Learning

Summary:

Acacia Magnet School for Enriched Learning is a public elementary school serving 380 students in grades K-5 in Thousand Oaks, California, which is part of the Conejo Valley Unified School District. While the district is ranked 292 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, Acacia Magnet School faces some challenges in terms of student performance and equity.

Acacia Magnet School's test scores are generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 49.11% of Acacia Magnet students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 65.1% for the district and 47.04% for the state. The school also has significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates at 25.7%, compared to 9.8% for Lang Ranch Elementary and 9.9% for Wildwood Elementary. Additionally, Acacia Magnet School has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 36.32%, compared to 13.33% at Lang Ranch and 14.81% at Wildwood.

The data suggests that Acacia Magnet School may be facing equity issues, as the performance of different student subgroups varies significantly. While white students perform relatively well, Hispanic students, English Language Learners, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds perform poorly, ranking in the bottom 50% of California elementary schools. These challenges are particularly notable given Acacia Magnet School's proximity to several high-performing elementary schools in the area, such as Lang Ranch, Wildwood, and Meadows Arts and Technology Elementary.

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.
