Summary

Newman Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 427 students in the Chino Valley Unified district, consistently ranking in the lower-middle tier of California elementary schools with a 2-star rating.

Academically, the school performs below both district and state averages, with only about 38% of students proficient in English and 25% in math. A significant challenge is chronic absenteeism, at 23.5%, which is higher than the district average. However, the school shows notable strengths in supporting specific student groups, ranking exceptionally well for homeless students and above average for English Language Learners. Performance varies widely by grade, with 6th graders doing better in English but 5th graders struggling particularly in math and science.

Comparisons with nearby schools reveal important context. Within the same district, Lyle S. Briggs Fundamental, located less than a mile away, outperforms Newman by roughly 20 percentage points in core subjects and has a much lower absenteeism rate. Newman's performance is similar to some schools in neighboring districts like Philadelphia Elementary (Pomona Unified) but below others like Ramona Elementary (Ontario-Montclair). The data suggests a strong link between attendance and achievement across all these local schools.
