Sutterville Elementary

Summary:

Sutterville Elementary is a public elementary school in Sacramento, California, serving 389 students in grades K-6. It is part of the Sacramento City Unified School District, which has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.

Sutterville Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state in academic achievement, with 66.53% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 38.95% for the district and 47.04% for the state. In mathematics, 56.15% of Sutterville students are proficient or better, compared to 29.38% for the district and 35.54% for the state.

Sutterville's strong performance extends across various student subgroups, including Hispanic, White, and Low Socioeconomic Status students.

While Sutterville Elementary is a high-performing school, it has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 4.1% in 2018-2019 to 16.0% in 2021-2022. This is an area of concern that may require attention. Compared to nearby schools, Sutterville outperforms most, except for Crocker/Riverside Elementary, which is also a high-performing school. The school serves a more economically diverse population, with a lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients than many of its neighbors, which may contribute to its strong academic performance. However, Sutterville's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 25.9 may be a factor to consider in terms of providing individualized attention and support to students.

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.
