Summary

Albany Park Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 319 students in the Delano Union Elementary district, operating in a community with significant economic need where most students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school shows a mixed but improving picture; its statewide ranking has risen from the 22nd to the 40th percentile in recent years, and it has a notable strength in science, where student proficiency exceeds both district and state averages. The school appears particularly effective for Hispanic students and those from low-income families, ranking higher for these groups than it does overall. However, challenges remain in mathematics and English Language Arts, and chronic absenteeism, while greatly improved from pandemic highs, is still higher than at most nearby schools like Morningside or Nueva Vista Language Academy.

When compared to other schools, Albany Park's performance suggests that demographics alone do not determine outcomes. For instance, Harvest Elementary in the same district achieves stronger results with similar student needs and spending, while Columbine Elementary in a different district excels with lower per-student funding. The school's positive trajectory and specific strengths indicate it is implementing strategies that work for its community, though there is room to learn from higher-performing peers within the district.
