Riley/New Dawn

Summary:

Riley/New Dawn is an alternative public school in San Diego, California, serving 135 students in grades K-12. This school faces significant challenges, including low graduation rates, high dropout rates, and poor academic performance compared to state and district averages.

Riley/New Dawn has consistently low four-year graduation rates, ranging from 21.4% to 59.1% over the past five years, which is much lower than the San Diego Unified and state averages. Correspondingly, the school has had high dropout rates, ranging from 7.1% to 41.2% during the same period. Additionally, Riley/New Dawn has very high chronic absenteeism rates, more than double the district and state averages. Academically, students at Riley/New Dawn perform significantly below their peers, with only 35.29% of 11th-graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 59.92% in the district and 55.73% statewide.

These challenges may be exacerbated by the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Riley/New Dawn, with 75.18% to 82.58% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in recent years. Interestingly, nearby alternative schools, such as Alba and Home & Hosp/Transition Support, also struggle with low test scores and high chronic absenteeism, suggesting that these issues may be common among alternative schools in the area. In contrast, Mt. Everest Academy, a virtual public school in the same district, has significantly higher graduation rates, lower dropout rates, and much stronger academic performance. Addressing the root causes of Riley/New Dawn's challenges, such as the high rates of economic disadvantage, could lead to improvements in 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.
