Taylor Street Elementary

Summary:

Taylor Street Elementary is a public elementary school in Sacramento, California, serving 324 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Robla Elementary District, which is ranked 1328 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Taylor Street Elementary faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, low academic performance, and a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. The school's chronic absenteeism rate has risen significantly, from 11.1% in 2017-2018 to 51.4% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than nearby Bell Avenue Elementary (45.1%) and Glenwood Elementary (44.2%), as well as the district average. Academically, Taylor Street Elementary's performance on the Smarter Balanced Assessments is consistently lower than the Robla Elementary District and the state of California averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

While Taylor Street Elementary and other Robla Elementary District schools share similar demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, there are notable differences in their academic performance. For instance, Bell Avenue Elementary and Glenwood Elementary consistently outperform Taylor Street Elementary in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, despite being in the same district. The high chronic absenteeism rates and the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds may be contributing factors to Taylor Street Elementary's lower academic 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.
