Summary:
The city of Ione, California has only one school, Ione Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade and is part of the Amador County Unified School District. Ione Elementary has a predominantly white student population, with 66.41% of students identifying as white, and a significant Hispanic population at 24.05%. However, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of California elementary schools, with a low ranking of 4,611 out of 5,848 in the 2022-2023 school year.
Academically, Ione Elementary struggles, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science all falling below the district and state averages. The school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 14.46% is particularly low compared to the district (24.65%) and state (31.86%) averages. Additionally, Ione Elementary has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 26.9%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This, combined with the relatively high percentage of students (35.11%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggests that the school may face challenges related to socioeconomic factors that impact student learning and academic progress.
Overall, the analysis of Ione Elementary highlights several areas of concern, including consistently low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism, and potential socioeconomic challenges. These findings suggest that the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and address the identified issues.
