Saticoy Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of California elementary schools, with a ranking between 2,946 and 4,518 out of around 5,800-5,900 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments is significantly below the Los Angeles Unified and California state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

Additionally, Saticoy Elementary has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 7.2% in 2020-2021 to 49.7% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Canterbury Avenue Elementary and Ranchito Avenue Elementary, which are also part of the Los Angeles Unified District, show a wide range of academic performance and other metrics. These schools often perform significantly better than Saticoy on Smarter Balanced Assessments, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points higher. This suggests that factors beyond just district and demographic characteristics may be contributing to the differences in school 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.
