Glen Yermo Elementary

Summary:

Glen Yermo Elementary is a public elementary school in Mission Viejo, California, serving 303 students in grades K-6 and part of the Saddleback Valley Unified School District.

While Glen Yermo Elementary has shown strengths in serving certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic students and English Language Learners, the school faces challenges in academic performance compared to the district and state averages, as well as nearby schools like Del Cerro Elementary, Rancho Canada Elementary, and Lake Forest Elementary. Glen Yermo's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science lag behind the district and state, and the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be a contributing factor to these academic challenges.

However, Glen Yermo Elementary has shown potential, with its performance in serving Hispanic students and English Language Learners ranking higher compared to the state average. Addressing the socioeconomic factors and improving attendance rates could be key focus areas for the school to enhance its overall academic performance and 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.
