Euclid Elementary

Summary:

Euclid Elementary is a public elementary school in San Diego, California, serving 409 students in grades K-5. It is part of the San Diego Unified School District, which is ranked 604 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Euclid Elementary faces significant challenges, including a sharp increase in chronic absenteeism rates, consistently lower test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to district and state averages, and underperformance of student subgroups like African American and Hispanic students. The school's free and reduced lunch rate is extremely high at 96.82%, indicating a large population of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to nearby schools like Fay Elementary, Euclid generally performs worse on key metrics, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of its student population.

Euclid Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 3,165 out of 5,611 California elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 3,340 out of 5,862 in 2023-2024. This downward trend, coupled with the school's high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism, likely contribute to the lower academic performance observed across grade levels and student subgroups. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for Euclid Elementary to improve student outcomes and close the achievement gap with its peers.

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.
