Summary:

Perkins K-8 is an elementary school located in San Diego, California, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 363 students. The school is part of the San Diego Unified School District, which is ranked 604 out of 1,568 districts in California and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Perkins K-8 is struggling academically, with consistently low performance across various metrics. The school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 32.7% to 66.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, Perkins K-8 students consistently perform significantly below the district and state averages in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 17.73% of Perkins K-8 students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 54.22% in the San Diego Unified School District and 47.04% statewide. Similarly, in Mathematics, only 12.96% of Perkins K-8 students were proficient or better, compared to 43.89% in the district and 35.54% statewide.

While Perkins K-8 and the nearby schools in the San Diego Unified School District share similar demographic characteristics, such as high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Perkins K-8 consistently underperforms these schools academically. For example, Mountain View, which is located just 1.81 miles away from Perkins K-8, outperforms Perkins K-8 in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics across all grade levels. The combination of Perkins K-8's low academic performance, high rates of poverty, and underperformance of student subgroups suggests that there may be equity concerns at the school, which could be related to factors such as resource allocation, teacher quality, and access to educational opportunities.

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.
