Summary:
The 92201 zip code area of Indio, California is home to 18 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 4 high schools, all part of the Desert Sands Unified School District, except for one school, Mountain Vista Elementary, which is part of the Coachella Valley Unified School District. The data reveals a wide range of performance among these schools, with some, like Shadow Hills High and John Glenn Middle School of International Studies, performing relatively well, while others, like Indio Middle and several elementary schools, are struggling significantly.
The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility across many of the schools indicate that the student population in this area faces significant economic challenges, which can have a substantial impact on student learning and achievement. This is further compounded by high rates of chronic absenteeism at some schools, including Indio High and Amistad High (Continuation). However, the data also suggests that schools with specialized programs, such as the International Studies programs at John Glenn Middle and Amelia Earhart Elementary, may be performing better than their peers, highlighting the potential benefits of school choice and specialized educational offerings for students in the area.
Overall, the data provides a detailed look at the educational landscape in the 92201 zip code area, revealing significant disparities in school performance and areas for potential improvement. These findings can inform targeted interventions and support to help ensure that all students in the area have access to a high-quality education, regardless of their economic background or the school they attend.
