Summary:
The 95843 zip code area of Antelope, California is home to 11 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 3 high schools, and 1 continuation high school. The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance across these schools, with Olive Grove Elementary and Antelope High standing out as the highest-performing schools in the area, while McClellan High (Continuation) struggles to meet state averages despite serving an important role in the community.
The four-year graduation rates at the high schools vary significantly, ranging from 63.5% at McClellan High (Continuation) to 93.6% at Antelope High. Chronic absenteeism rates also differ greatly, from 16.9% at Antelope High to 70.5% at McClellan High (Continuation). Standardized test scores show a similar pattern, with Olive Grove Elementary and Antelope High consistently performing above the district and state averages, while other schools like Oak Hill Elementary and McClellan High (Continuation) struggle to meet these benchmarks.
The data also reveals a potential correlation between the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and academic performance, with schools serving a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students tending to have lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that students in the 95843 zip code may have vastly different educational experiences and opportunities depending on which school they attend, highlighting the need for continued efforts to improve educational equity in the area.
