Summary:
The 91740 zip code area is home to 8 schools spanning elementary, high school, and alternative education programs, spread across two school districts - Glendora Unified and Charter Oak Unified. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools, with Sutherland Elementary and Washington Elementary standing out as top-performing elementary schools, while the continuation high schools, such as Arrow High (Continuation), face challenges with lower academic proficiency and higher dropout rates.
A key concern across many of the schools is the high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.5% at Sutherland Elementary to over 80% at the continuation high schools. This suggests the need for targeted interventions to improve student attendance and engagement. Additionally, the data reveals significant disparities in performance between the elementary and high school levels, with the continuation programs struggling the most academically.
Despite these challenges, the data also highlights the important role that alternative and continuation programs, such as Oak Knoll Alternative, play in providing educational opportunities for students who may have faced difficulties in traditional high school settings. These programs have relatively high graduation rates and lower dropout rates, indicating they are meeting a critical need in the community.
