Reeds Creek Elementary

Summary:

Reeds Creek Elementary is a public elementary school located in Red Bluff, California, serving grades K-8 with a student population of 181. The school is part of the Reeds Creek Elementary District, which is ranked 900 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Reeds Creek Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to nearby schools like Lassen View Elementary and Antelope Elementary. The school also generally underperforms the state average on standardized tests, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points below the state averages. Additionally, Reeds Creek Elementary has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 50-58% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools.

The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1,622 out of 5,530 schools in 2012-2013 to 4,230 out of 5,862 schools in 2023-2024. This trend is concerning and suggests the need for intervention and improvement strategies, particularly in addressing the significant achievement gaps for male students, white students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. While the high chronic absenteeism rates, high percentage of low-income students, and relatively high student-teacher ratio may be contributing factors to the school's lower academic performance, Reeds Creek Elementary's underperformance compared to nearby schools indicates the need for targeted support to improve student 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.
