Summary:
The 92316 zip code area in California is home to 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, all part of the Colton Joint Unified School District. The district is ranked 1219 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant room for improvement in academic performance and student outcomes.
Among the schools in this area, a few stand out. Ruth Grimes Elementary has the highest performance, with English Language Arts (ELA) and Math proficiency rates exceeding both the district and state averages. Crestmore Elementary is another high-performing school, with proficiency rates above the district average and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Bloomington High, the largest school in the group with 1,976 students, has a 2-star rating and graduation rates slightly below the state average.
The data also reveals significant challenges facing many of the schools in this area. Several schools have very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 28-46%, which likely impacts student learning and achievement. Additionally, most schools have very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage. Standardized test scores vary widely, with some schools significantly underperforming the district and state averages, particularly in math. Addressing these equity gaps and improving academic outcomes for all students should be a priority for the Colton Joint Unified School District.
