Summary:
The 93240 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 high school, 1 elementary school, and 1 middle school. While these schools serve a high-need student population, with a large percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, they face significant challenges in academic performance and student engagement.
Kern Valley High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 76.6%, but also has a concerning dropout rate of 14.0%. The school's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with 11th-grade students scoring above the Kern High district average in ELA but below the state average, and significantly below both the district and state averages in math. In contrast, Woodrow W. Wallace Elementary School and Woodrow Wallace Middle School both perform below the district and state averages on standardized tests, with high chronic absenteeism rates of 47.7% and 41.8%, respectively.
The data suggests that the schools in this area face significant challenges, including high-need student populations, low academic performance, and high chronic absenteeism rates. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, increased resources, and collaboration with the Kernville Union Elementary and Kern High districts to improve student outcomes in the 93240 zip code area.
