Summary:
Springville, California, is served by a single K-8 public school, Springville Elementary, which educates 335 students within the Springville Union Elementary School District in a rural setting.
Academic performance at Springville Elementary is generally below the California state averages, with about 41% of students proficient in English and 30% in math, though its 8th grade science scores do exceed the state average. The school has maintained a consistent 2-star rating, placing it in the lower half of schools statewide, and faces a significant challenge with chronic absenteeism, which is higher than the state average. Over half of the students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a community with considerable economic need.
Notable trends in the data include a concerning drop in performance across all subjects in 5th grade, which contrasts with stronger results in later middle school grades, particularly in science. While the school's per-student spending is substantial, outcomes suggest a need to examine how effectively these resources are used to support student learning and address attendance issues to help improve overall achievement.
