Summary:

Cleveland Elementary is a public elementary school located in Stockton, California, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 652 students. The school is part of the Stockton Unified School District, which is ranked 1289 out of 1568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.

Cleveland Elementary faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 20% to 41.8%, and a student population that is predominantly economically disadvantaged, with 78.22% to 87.54% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school consistently ranks in the bottom 25% of California elementary schools, with performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments well below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

The nearby schools in the Stockton Unified district, such as Madison Elementary, Harrison Elementary, and El Dorado Elementary, also struggle academically and have similar challenges. However, some charter schools in the area, like John McCandless Charter and Primary Years Academy, perform significantly better than Cleveland Elementary and the surrounding district schools, suggesting that there may be opportunities to learn from successful practices and implement strategies to improve outcomes for all students at Cleveland 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.
