Summary

Chaparral Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 616 students in the Chino Valley Unified district, consistently performing above state averages despite a significant recent increase in students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

The school truly stands out for its effectiveness, achieving strong English and Math proficiency rates that are well above the state average and significantly higher than other local schools with similar student populations, such as Anna A. Borba Fundamental Elementary and Dickson Elementary. It also excels at keeping students in class, with a chronic absenteeism rate much lower than the district and state averages. While the school performs very well overall, there is a noticeable performance gap between female and male students, and science scores, though good, are an area identified for potential growth compared to a school like Edwin Rhodes Elementary.

In summary, Chaparral Elementary is a high-performing and cost-efficient school that has successfully maintained and even improved its academic standing during a period of rapid demographic change. It serves as a strong model within the district, demonstrating that a school can achieve excellent results for all its students. Parents can be confident in its consistent track record and its specific success in supporting student attendance and achievement.
