Summary:
The 94518 zip code area in California is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Mt. Diablo Unified School District. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance among these schools, with Woodside Elementary standing out as the highest-performing school in the area, while Oak Grove Middle and Ygnacio Valley High struggle to meet state and district averages on key metrics.
Woodside Elementary boasts the highest statewide ranking among the elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, and it also has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels compared to the other schools in the area. In contrast, Oak Grove Middle and Ygnacio Valley High have significantly lower proficiency rates, with Ygnacio Valley High's proficiency rates ranging from only 8% to 39% in Math and ELA, well below the district and state averages.
The data also reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic outcomes, as the schools with higher free/reduced lunch rates, such as Oak Grove Middle and Ygnacio Valley High, tend to have lower proficiency rates and overall performance. Additionally, all the schools in the area have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.6% to 36.2%, which may be an area of concern that requires further investigation and targeted interventions to improve student attendance and engagement.
