Summary

E. J. Marshall Elementary is a K-6 public school in the Chino Valley Unified district, serving 417 students and showing a strong, consistent record of improvement in recent years.

The school stands out for its effective support of all students, particularly demonstrating exceptional results for students experiencing homelessness and strong performance for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Academically, it outperforms California state averages in English and Math, and has made remarkable progress in reducing chronic student absenteeism, now boasting a better attendance rate than both the district and state. This success is notable when compared to a very similar nearby school, Walnut Avenue Elementary, which serves a student body with nearly identical economic challenges but has significantly lower test scores and much higher chronic absenteeism.

While E. J. Marshall's academic scores are slightly below the average for Chino Valley Unified, it achieves its results efficiently, spending less per student than some neighboring schools. Its steady rise from a 2-star to a 3-star rating contrasts with the fluctuating or declining performance of some area schools like Newman Elementary. The school's trajectory and specific strengths, especially in supporting vulnerable students, make it a compelling case of effective education within its community.
