Lawndale Elementary

Summary:

The Lawndale Elementary School District in California serves 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 2 middle schools. The district's schools vary in academic performance, with some standout institutions like Jane Addams Middle School and Mark Twain Elementary leading the way, while others struggle to meet proficiency standards.

Jane Addams Middle School is the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 763 out of 2,788 California middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. It also has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages. Mark Twain Elementary is another standout, ranking in the top 22% of California elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science among the elementary schools.

However, the district faces several challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.0% at Mark Twain Elementary to 37.5% at Billy Mitchell Elementary. Additionally, the majority of the schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The Lawndale Elementary School District must address these disparities and work to provide a more equitable and high-quality education for all students.
