Del Rosa Elementary

Summary:

Del Rosa Elementary is a public elementary school in San Bernardino, California, serving 525 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the San Bernardino City Unified School District, which is ranked 1221 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Del Rosa Elementary faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, low academic performance, and a student population with high socioeconomic needs. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are well below the district and state averages, with only 14.97% of students proficient or better in ELA and 12.88% in Mathematics, compared to 33.42% and 21.02% for the district, respectively. The school's performance is also consistently low across various student subgroups, including female, male, Hispanic, and low-income students. In contrast, nearby schools like Wilson Elementary, Fairfax Elementary, and Emmerton Elementary generally perform better academically and have lower chronic absenteeism rates.

The high rates of chronic absenteeism and the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population at Del Rosa Elementary may be contributing factors to the school's low academic performance. Additionally, the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio could be a challenge, as it may limit the individual attention and support that students receive. To address these issues, targeted interventions and support, such as implementing evidence-based instructional practices, providing additional resources for students, and addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism, will be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for the students at Del Rosa 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.
