Summary:
The 93907 zip code area in California is home to 9 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, spread across two school districts - North Monterey County Unified and Salinas City Elementary. While the schools in this area face significant challenges, with most having high rates of economic disadvantage, a few standout institutions are providing quality education to their students.
Lagunita Elementary is the top performer, with impressive proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, as well as low chronic absenteeism and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate. Boronda Elementary also stands out, with proficiency levels well above the district and state averages. In contrast, schools like Oasis Charter Public and Central Bay High (Continuation) struggle, with proficiency rates significantly below state levels.
The data also reveals significant disparities in student performance, with a wide gap between the top-performing and lower-performing schools. This suggests inequities in educational opportunities and resources. Additionally, many schools in the 93907 zip code area face high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage, which likely impact learning and achievement. However, the North Monterey County Center for Independent Study stands out as an alternative program providing valuable options for students who may not thrive in a traditional school setting.
