Summary

Antelope Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 286 students in Littlerock, CA, within the Keppel Union Elementary district, which ranks among the lowest in the state.

Academic performance at the school is significantly below state averages, with only about 13% of students proficient in English and 12% in math, and it has declined steadily over the past decade to the 3rd percentile statewide. The school underperforms compared to nearby schools like Pearblossom Elementary, which has higher proficiency rates despite similar funding levels. While chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically from 50% to 23%, this positive change has not yet translated into better test scores, suggesting challenges with instructional quality or resource effectiveness.

Interesting findings include a large gender performance gap, with female students historically outperforming males, and extreme variation in results by grade level, such as 7th-grade math proficiency at 34% compared to just 3% in 6th and 8th grades. The school has shown historical strength in teaching English Language Learners, indicating past effective strategies that could be revived. A key takeaway is that while the entire Keppel Union Elementary district faces challenges, schools with similar student populations like Los Amigos - Dual Immersion in the neighboring Palmdale Elementary district achieve much stronger academic results.
