Summary:
The 93219 zip code area in California is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 middle school. The data reveals stark differences in academic performance among these schools, with Allensworth Elementary standing out as the lowest-performing school, while Alila shows relatively stronger performance, particularly in English Language Arts.
Across the schools, high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 33.1% at Earlimart Elementary to 41.8% at Allensworth Elementary, are a significant concern and likely contribute to the overall low academic performance. Additionally, the schools serve communities facing significant economic challenges, with extremely high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 90.36% at Earlimart Elementary to 100% at Allensworth Elementary.
While the overall performance of these schools is concerning, the data also highlights opportunities for improvement. Schools like Alila demonstrate that higher levels of academic achievement are possible, even in economically disadvantaged areas. Identifying and replicating the successful practices at Alila could benefit the other schools in the Earlimart Elementary and Allensworth Elementary districts, as addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates, low academic proficiency, and socioeconomic disadvantages will be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for students in this community.
