Jellick Elementary

Summary:

Jellick Elementary is a public elementary school in Rowland Heights, CA, serving 382 students in grades K-6 as part of the Rowland Unified school district. While the district is ranked 759 out of 1,568 in California, Jellick Elementary faces significant challenges, consistently underperforming the district and state averages in academic assessments.

Jellick Elementary's academic performance lags behind nearby schools like Shelyn Elementary and Ybarra Academy for the Arts and Technology, which outperform Jellick across all grade levels and subject areas. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 35% of Jellick students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 65.16% at Shelyn Elementary and 60.58% at Ybarra Academy. The school also struggles with the performance of certain student subgroups, particularly Asian and Hispanic students, who rank in the bottom 20-25% of their respective statewide subgroups.

Additionally, Jellick Elementary has seen a sharp increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 5.5% in 2017-2018 to 28.6% in 2021-2022, which is much higher than the district and state averages. The school also has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 82.2% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting that the school may face additional challenges in supporting student learning and achievement. Addressing these key issues through targeted interventions and support could be crucial for improving student outcomes at Jellick Elementary.

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.
