Summary:
The Fenton Avenue Charter District contains one elementary school, Fenton Avenue Charter, serving grades K-5 with 746 students in Lake View Terrace.
This school stands out for its exceptionally low rate of chronic absenteeism, at just 5%, which is dramatically better than the California average of 19.4%. This indicates a very strong school culture where students are consistently present. Academically, the school performs close to the state average in English Language Arts but faces challenges in mathematics and science, with scores below the state average. A notable pattern is that math performance tends to decline relative to the state as students move from 3rd to 5th grade.
Considering that over 82% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's ability to maintain academic performance near state averages is a significant achievement. The school has received a stable 3-star rating over the last three years. For parents, this school represents an environment with strong student attendance and engagement, performing adequately in core subjects while serving a high-needs community, though math and science are areas where focused support may be beneficial.
