Boulder Ridge Elementary

Summary:

Boulder Ridge Elementary is a public elementary school located in Menifee, California, serving 840 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Romoland Elementary School District, which is ranked 1061 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Boulder Ridge Elementary faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, lower-than-average test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and a high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds. The school's chronic absenteeism rate has increased significantly, from 12.6% in 2017-2018 to 39.6% in 2021-2022, which is notably higher than the district and state averages. Academically, the school's proficiency rates on Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST Science assessments are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. However, the strong performance of certain student subgroups, such as African American and English Language Learner students, suggests that the school has the potential to improve overall academic outcomes by identifying and replicating the strategies that are working well for these groups.

Compared to nearby schools, Ridgemoor Elementary, Southshore Elementary, and Chester W. Morrison Elementary in the Menifee Union School District generally perform better than Boulder Ridge Elementary on test scores and have lower chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that there are opportunities for Boulder Ridge Elementary to collaborate with these higher-performing schools and learn from their best practices to help raise the overall performance of the school.

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.
