Guy Junior Emanuele Elementary

Summary:

Guy Junior Emanuele Elementary is a public elementary school in Union City, California, serving 666 students in grades K-5 as part of the New Haven Unified School District. However, the school consistently underperforms academically compared to both district and state averages, with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

Guy Junior Emanuele Elementary struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.1% to 55.8% in recent years, significantly higher than the 26.9% rate at the nearby Tom Kitayama Elementary. Additionally, the school serves a larger population of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 46-50% participating in the free and reduced-price lunch program, compared to 33.66% at Tom Kitayama Elementary.

The significant performance gap between the two schools, which serve similar student populations, suggests that there may be opportunities for Guy Junior Emanuele Elementary to learn from and implement effective practices from its higher-performing counterpart.

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.
