Glen Avon Elementary

Summary:

Glen Avon Elementary is a public elementary school in Riverside, California, serving 537 students in grades K-6 as part of the Jurupa Unified School District. While the school performs better than the district average in some areas, it faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates and disparities in academic performance across different student populations.

Glen Avon Elementary's chronic absenteeism rates have risen sharply, from 6.7% in 2017-2018 to 29.7% in 2022-2023, which is higher than nearby schools like Granite Hill Elementary (32.1%) and Rustic Lane Elementary (34.7%). Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally higher than the district average but lower than the state average. Additionally, Glen Avon performs relatively well in certain subgroups, such as English Language Learners and Disabled Students, but struggles in others, such as Female Students, Male Students, Hispanic Students, and Low Socio-Economic Status Students.

Interestingly, Glen Avon Elementary's performance is on par with or slightly better than nearby schools within the Jurupa Unified School District, but it lags behind the performance of Camino Real Elementary and Stone Avenue Elementary, which have higher academic proficiency rates and lower chronic absenteeism. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (82.31%) may be a contributing factor to its overall performance, as socio-economic status is often correlated with educational outcomes.

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.
