Summary:
The Dry Creek Joint Elementary School District in California serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade across 10 schools, including 8 elementary schools and 2 middle schools. Overall, the district performs well academically, with all schools ranking in the top half of California schools and most in the top third.
The standout schools in the district are Silverado Middle, which has the highest state-wide ranking and the strongest test scores, as well as Creekview Ranch and Quail Glen Elementary, which also have very high academic performance. However, there is a wide range in performance, with some schools like Antelope Meadows Elementary and Barrett Ranch Elementary lagging behind the top performers.
The district's virtual school, Dry Creek Connections Academy, has strong test scores but also the highest chronic absenteeism rate, suggesting challenges with student engagement in the online format. Additionally, there is an inverse relationship between free/reduced lunch rates and test scores, with the schools serving more economically disadvantaged populations tending to have lower academic performance.
