Summary:

Stagg Street Elementary is a public elementary school in Van Nuys, California, serving 431 students in grades K-5. This school consistently outperforms the Los Angeles Unified School District and the state of California in academic achievement, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

The school ranks in the top 10% and top 20% of California elementary schools for Hispanic students and low socioeconomic status students, respectively.

While Stagg Street Elementary outperforms most nearby schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District, one exception is Valley Charter Elementary, a public charter school located slightly further away, which consistently outperforms Stagg Street Elementary and the other nearby district schools in academic achievement. However, Stagg Street Elementary's increasing chronic absenteeism rates, reaching over 35% in the 2022-2023 school year, is a concern that the school and district should address to ensure continued academic success for all students.

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.
