Summary:
The Rocketship Futuro Academy District in Concord, California, consists of a single elementary school, Rocketship Futuro Academy, serving grades K-5 with 669 students.
This school stands out for its strong performance in mathematics, where students outperform the state average by over 10 percentage points, a significant achievement given that over 70% of students are economically disadvantaged. However, performance varies by grade and subject: while English Language Arts (ELA) scores for 3rd and 4th graders are below state averages, 5th graders excel, scoring over 13 points higher than the state. Science scores are an area identified for potential growth.
Parents should note the school maintains a consistent middle-performance ranking statewide and has stable three-star ratings. A key challenge is a chronic absenteeism rate higher than the state average, yet the school's success in math and with 5th-grade ELA suggests effective instructional strategies. The student-teacher ratio is higher than typical for elementary schools, at 33-to-1.
