Summary:
The 92805 zip code area of Anaheim, California is home to 11 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals stark disparities in academic performance among these schools, with some standout performers and others struggling to meet state standards.
Jefferson (Thomas) Elementary and Franklin (Benjamin) Elementary are the top-performing schools in the area, ranking among the highest in California and outperforming the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Sycamore Junior High and several elementary schools, such as Lincoln (Abraham) Elementary and Orange Grove Elementary, have particularly low proficiency rates, ranking in the bottom 10% of California schools.
The schools in the 92805 zip code serve a predominantly low-income student population, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility and chronic absenteeism. This suggests that these schools face significant socioeconomic challenges that can impact student learning and achievement. The presence of the alternative public charter school, EPIC Charter, provides an additional educational option for families in the area, though its performance results are mixed. Overall, the data highlights the need for continued efforts to improve academic outcomes and address the unique needs of these high-poverty schools within the Anaheim Union High and Anaheim Elementary districts.
