Summary

Maple Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 315 students in the Fullerton Elementary district, located in a community where a high percentage of families qualify for economic assistance.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with proficiency rates in English and math well below both district and state averages, and its statewide ranking has declined over several years. The school has a higher student-teacher ratio than many nearby schools, such as Commonwealth Elementary and Richman Elementary. Performance gaps exist between different groups of students, with female students and English learners showing particular declines in recent years.

Interesting comparisons within the same district reveal that school success isn't solely tied to spending or class size. For example, Acacia Elementary, a top-performing school just a short distance away, achieves excellent results despite having a very high student-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending. This suggests factors like teaching quality, curriculum, and school culture are critical. Maple's chronic absenteeism rate, while better than the state average, is higher than the district's, and schools with lower absenteeism like Raymond Elementary and Acacia generally perform better, pointing to a key area for potential improvement.

Open Quote We are very upset, that they don't seem to care about the self esteem of the kids. Our daugther has been bullied all year and when we brought it to the teachers attention, she said that my daugther was just in the wrong group. I'm talking about a 5 yr old and she found it normal to have bullies at this age.

We tried coaching our daughter to ignore and report these incidents, but she wasnt getting any help at school. So finally after being able to get time off from work I went into to speak with the principal and the office staff treated my husband and I like we were an inconvenience. To schedule our appt to speak the principal, she yelled at us from acroos the room, very rude.

Then still made us feel like it was our fault for waiting a month to come into the office to report it. She didn't seem to realize that it took my daughter awhile tell us again why she was upset all the time. I feel bullying should not be tolerated no matter how small it seems, because to my 5 yrs old its not so small.

My daughter used to love going to school, and now she doesn't. She even complains that her teacher doesn't like her. The few times I've seen her interact with her students, she seems annoyed.

If we are coming for help, we shouldn't be treated like we are ignorant. Close Quote
