Better than 14% of California elementary schools

Summary

Evergreen Elementary is a public K-5 school serving about 660 students in the Bakersfield City School District, operating in a community where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with student proficiency in English, math, and science well below state averages; however, its performance in English Language Arts is slightly stronger than the district average, and it shows a remarkable strength in teaching English Language Learners, ranking in the top quartile of California schools for that student group. A major bright spot is a dramatic improvement in student attendance, with chronic absenteeism dropping from over 50% to about 20%, now matching the state average and outperforming nearby schools like McKinley Elementary and Stine Elementary.

When compared to other local schools, Evergreen serves a student population with economic needs similar to McKinley Elementary but higher than Caroline Harris Elementary; it's important to note that all the Bakersfield City district schools in the area face academic challenges. The school's most critical area for improvement is mathematics, where proficiency is very low, especially in the upper grades, indicating a need for targeted support.
