Elementary Schools in Magnolia Union Elementary

Summary:

Magnolia Union Elementary is the sole K-8 school serving 128 students in the Magnolia Union Elementary district located in Brawley, California.

Magnolia Union Elementary shows notable strengths, including an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 2.3%, far better than the state average, indicating a strong, engaged school community. Academically, performance is mixed; while 7th grade English Language Arts outperforms the state, overall proficiency in math and English is below California averages. The school's recent statewide ranking has declined from the 57th to the 47th percentile, a change that merits attention from school leadership.

Key takeaways for parents include the school's high attendance, which is a positive foundation for learning, and pockets of academic success in upper-grade English. However, the recent drop in ranking and below-average math scores suggest areas for focused improvement. With per-student spending above the state average, the district has resources to address these challenges and build upon the school's clear strengths in student engagement and community.
