Cinnabar Elementary

The Cinnabar Elementary District in California consists of two elementary schools: Cinnabar Charter and Cinnabar Elementary. Both schools face significant challenges, with low academic performance, high chronic absenteeism rates, and a majority of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Cinnabar Charter has an enrollment of 186 students, while Cinnabar Elementary has only 21 students. Both schools perform well below the state average in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 15.38% to 32% in ELA and 7.14% to 28% in Math, compared to the state averages of 42.8% to 47.37% in ELA and 31.57% to 45.64% in Math. Science proficiency rates, as measured by the CAST assessment, are also very low, with Cinnabar Charter scoring 0% to 15.38% proficient and Cinnabar Elementary lacking data.

The chronic absenteeism rates are also a concern, with Cinnabar Charter at 24.4% and Cinnabar Elementary at an alarmingly high 43.5%. Both schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, with Cinnabar Charter at 66.67% and Cinnabar Elementary at 85.71%. The overall low performance, high chronic absenteeism, and high rates of free and reduced-price lunch suggest that the Cinnabar Elementary District is facing significant challenges in providing quality education to its students.
