Summary

Los Amigos Elementary is a K-5 public school serving about 550 students in Rancho Cucamonga, California, and it faces significant academic challenges, currently ranking in the bottom 16% of all California elementary schools.

The school's academic performance is notably lower than many nearby schools, with only about 27% of students proficient in English and 18% in math, compared to much higher rates at schools like Edison Elementary and Valle Vista Elementary. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with over 21% of students missing significant school time, which is much higher than most surrounding schools and likely impacts learning. Furthermore, the school is part of the Cucamonga Elementary district, which is ranked in the bottom 13% of districts statewide, suggesting broader systemic challenges.

Despite these struggles, Los Amigos shows a relative strength in supporting English Language Learners, who perform near the state average. However, outcomes for students in special education have declined sharply. Interestingly, the school spends over $22,800 per student, which is more than some higher-performing neighbors, raising questions about how resources are used. The analysis suggests the school could benefit from collaborating with top-performing nearby schools to adopt successful strategies, particularly for improving attendance and supporting all student groups.
