Summary

Westside Park Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 481 students in Adelanto, California, a community where the Adelanto Elementary district faces significant academic challenges.

The school is contending with serious hurdles, particularly very low test scores and an alarmingly high rate of chronic student absenteeism at 41.5%, which is more than double the state average. This attendance issue is strongly linked to academic performance; for example, nearby Gus Franklin Junior has much lower absenteeism and significantly higher achievement. While Westside Park's overall results are low, the school shows relative strength in supporting its African American students and English Learners compared to other student groups. Math scores are a particular concern, dropping sharply from 18.52% proficiency in 3rd grade to just 2.41% in 5th grade.

There are signs of potential, as a recent small improvement in the school's statewide ranking coincided with a reduction in absenteeism. The performance of other local schools, like the higher-achieving charter school Desert Trails Preparatory Academy in a different district, shows that better outcomes are possible for students in the area. For Westside Park, a continued intense focus on improving daily attendance appears to be the most critical first step toward creating a foundation for academic growth.
