Summary

De Anza Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 421 students in the Baldwin Park Unified School District, operating in a high-need community where the vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school's statewide ranking has seen some fluctuation, currently placing in the 36th percentile, with test scores in English, math, and science below the state average but generally similar to others in the district. A significant and standout strength is the school's exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 7.5%, which is dramatically better than the district and state averages and is the best among local schools like Foster Elementary (23.5%) and Kenmore Elementary (19.6%). The school has also shown notable effectiveness in supporting English Language Learners, historically outperforming many nearby schools in this area.

When compared to schools in neighboring districts, De Anza's performance is similar to most in Mountain View Elementary but trails higher-performing schools like Durfee Elementary in El Monte City. Key areas for attention include mathematics performance, particularly in 5th grade, and understanding the recent shift in its statewide ranking. The school's successful strategies in improving attendance and supporting language learners are clear strengths that distinguish it within the local educational landscape.
