Summary

Florin Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 583 students in Sacramento, California, as part of the Elk Grove Unified School District, and it faces significant academic and attendance challenges compared to other schools in the area.

The school's academic performance is among the lowest locally, with only about 32% of students proficient in English and 17% in math, which is lower than nearby schools like Anna Kirchgater Elementary and far below Camellia Elementary. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with 39.3% of students missing too much school—a rate nearly double the district average and much higher than most neighboring schools. The student population is also experiencing economic hardship, with over 91% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the highest rate among comparable schools.

Interestingly, Florin Elementary spends more per student than most nearby schools, yet outcomes remain poor, suggesting resources may not be effectively addressing core issues. The school has shown relative strength in supporting English Language Learners, indicating some effective programs. For improvement, focusing on reducing absenteeism and learning from strategies used at higher-performing schools with similar demographics, such as those within the Sacramento City Unified district, could be key leverage points.
