Summary:

Jessie Nelson Academy is a public middle school located in Signal Hill, CA, serving 834 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Long Beach Unified School District, which is ranked 654 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Jessie Nelson Academy consistently underperforms compared to the district and state in academic assessments, with only 32.9% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 19.48% proficient in Mathematics. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism, reaching 30.7% in 2021-2022, and significant achievement gaps among student subgroups. In contrast, nearby schools like Hughes Middle, Rogers Middle, and Marshall Academy of the Arts outperform Jessie Nelson Academy in academic proficiency and have lower chronic absenteeism.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, reaching 70.7% in 2021-2022, and the declining performance of Jessie Nelson Academy over the past several years suggest that the school may be facing significant challenges in providing equitable educational opportunities for all its students. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to support the school's students and improve their educational experiences.

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.
