Summary

Marion Mix Elementary is a K-6 public school serving about 736 students in the Elk Grove Unified School District, representing a solid, middle-performing option for families in the area.

The school earns a 3-star rating, performing at or slightly above state averages in core subjects, though it faces a significant challenge with chronic student absenteeism, which is higher than both district and state averages. A key strength is its exceptional track record with English Language Learner students, where it has ranked among the top schools in the state. Interestingly, Marion Mix achieves these results while spending less per student than most nearby schools, such as John Reith Elementary, suggesting it uses its resources efficiently. The student population has seen a notable increase in economic need in recent years, yet the school has maintained stable academic performance.

When compared to neighboring schools, Marion Mix sits in the middle of the pack. It significantly outperforms schools like John Reith Elementary but trails higher-performing schools like Stone Lake Elementary and Helen Carr Castello Elementary. Its performance is similar to other schools with comparable demographics, such as Barbara Comstock Morse Elementary. The wide range of outcomes among these geographically close schools highlights how individual school programs and community factors can influence results.
