Summary:
The 92123 zip code area of San Diego, California is home to 12 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 8 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The schools in this area display a wide range of academic performance, with some standout high-performing schools like Elevate, a public charter elementary/middle school ranking in the top 10% of California schools, and School for Entrepreneurship and Technology, a public charter high school with strong academic outcomes. In contrast, some schools like San Diego County Court, an alternative public school, and Fletcher Elementary, a public elementary school, struggle with low proficiency rates and high chronic absenteeism.
The data reveals significant disparities in student performance and outcomes across the schools in the 92123 zip code area. The highest-performing schools, such as Elevate and School for Entrepreneurship and Technology, demonstrate that public school choice can provide opportunities for students to attend schools with strong academic programs and supportive environments. However, the low-performing San Diego Mission Academy charter school shows that not all charter schools are successful in serving their students.
Addressing the high rates of chronic absenteeism, especially at the alternative and underperforming schools, should be a priority for improving student outcomes in this area. The wide range of student demographics, as measured by free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, indicates that the 92123 zip code area serves a diverse population with varying socioeconomic backgrounds, which likely contributes to the disparities in academic performance observed across the schools.
