Summary:
Rocketship Los Suenos Academy is the sole elementary public charter school in the Rocketship Los Suenos Academy District located in San Jose, California. The school serves a diverse student population, with a high percentage of Hispanic and low-income students. While the school demonstrates some academic strengths, it also faces several challenges that warrant attention from the district and community.
Academically, Rocketship Los Suenos Academy has uneven performance, with proficiency rates above the state average in 3rd-grade math but below the state average in 4th and 5th-grade ELA and math. The school's overall statewide ranking has declined in recent years, and its chronic absenteeism rate is high at 33%. These factors likely contribute to the school's consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating room for improvement in student outcomes.
Addressing the equity concerns at Rocketship Los Suenos Academy should be a priority for the district. With 84% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a high-need population that requires additional support and resources to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed. Improving attendance and implementing targeted academic interventions could help the school reverse its declining performance and better serve the diverse community it represents.
