Summary:
The 95006 zip code area in California is home to two schools - Ocean Grove Charter, a high-performing public charter school serving grades K-12, and Boulder Creek Elementary, a traditional public elementary school serving grades K-5.
Ocean Grove Charter stands out as an exceptional school, with a strong 87.6% four-year graduation rate, a low 2.0% dropout rate, and students significantly outperforming the state average on Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST science tests across multiple grade levels. In contrast, Boulder Creek Elementary has more mixed results, with some grades exceeding the state average on assessments while others fall behind, and a concerning 38.4% chronic absenteeism rate.
The data suggests that the Ocean Grove Charter District is providing a high-quality education, while the San Lorenzo Valley Unified district may need to address the challenges faced by Boulder Creek Elementary, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate. The performance gap between the two schools could be influenced by factors like socioeconomic differences, as indicated by the lower free/reduced lunch rate at Ocean Grove Charter.
