Summary:
The city of Phelan, California is home to 10 schools serving students from elementary through high school, with the majority of schools belonging to the Snowline Joint Unified School District. The data reveals stark contrasts in academic performance and other key metrics across the district, with some schools like Heritage consistently ranking among the top in the state, while others like Chaparral High and Eagle Summit Community Day struggle significantly.
The top-performing schools in the district, such as Serrano High and Heritage, boast high test scores, low chronic absenteeism, and impressive graduation rates, while the lower-performing schools tend to have higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a correlation between socioeconomic status and educational outcomes. The data also highlights the potential benefits of smaller class sizes, as schools with the lowest student-teacher ratios, like Heritage, appear to perform better on various metrics.
The Mojave River Academy - Marble City, a public charter school, stands out as an alternative option with the lowest chronic absenteeism rate and the second-highest graduation rate among the high schools in the data set, underscoring the importance of school culture and climate in fostering student engagement and success.
