Summary:
The Sonoma Charter District in Sonoma, California, contains a single K-8 elementary school, Sonoma Charter, serving 226 students.
This school shows a mix of strengths and challenges in its academic performance. In mathematics, students at Sonoma Charter perform slightly above the California state average, which is a notable positive. However, performance varies significantly between grade levels; for example, fifth graders excel in English Language Arts while fourth graders struggle in the same subject. Science scores are an area for improvement, as they fall below state averages.
Parents should note that the school's chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state average, which can impact learning. The school has maintained an average 3-star rating, though its statewide ranking has seen a slight decline in recent years. With nearly half of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's ability to outperform in math while dealing with this and the attendance challenge indicates a resilient educational environment, though focused attention on science and consistent performance across all grades could help elevate overall outcomes.
