Summary:
The 95726 zip code in California is home to two schools: Pinewood Elementary and Sierra Ridge Middle. Both schools serve a student population with a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating a relatively low-income demographic. While Pinewood Elementary has relatively higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts/Literacy compared to the district and state, both schools struggle with Mathematics proficiency, with rates well below the state average.
Pinewood Elementary stands out for its high chronic absenteeism rate of 42.2%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Sierra Ridge Middle also has a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 31.3%. Both schools have relatively low statewide rankings, with Pinewood Elementary ranking in the bottom half of California elementary schools and Sierra Ridge Middle ranking in the bottom half of California middle schools. This suggests that these schools may face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students.
Overall, the data highlights the need for these schools to address chronic absenteeism, support their socioeconomically disadvantaged student populations, and focus on improving academic performance, particularly in Mathematics. Targeted interventions and support, as well as collaboration with the Pollock Pines Elementary District, may be necessary to help these schools improve their educational outcomes and provide a better learning environment for their students.
