Summary

Alicante Avenue Elementary is a large public elementary school serving 959 students in grades K-6 in Lamont, California, operating within the Lamont Elementary district, which ranks in the bottom 5% of California districts.

Academically, the school consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of all California elementary schools, with 23.67% of students proficient in English and 15.74% proficient in math, which is generally below the district average and far below the state average. However, the school has a notable strength in its low chronic absenteeism rate of 9.4%, which is significantly better than both the district and state averages and represents a major improvement from pandemic-era levels. Interestingly, this strong attendance has not translated into higher test scores, and performance in math shows a concerning decline from 3rd to 5th grade.

When compared to nearby schools, Alicante Avenue's academic performance is lower than several peers with similar student demographics. For instance, Shirley Lane Elementary and Valle Verde Elementary achieve much higher proficiency rates. The school's per-student spending is mid-range for the area, but some schools with lower spending, like Horizon Elementary, outperform it. The smaller Grow Academy Arvin also shows dramatically higher proficiency with a similar student population, suggesting school size or instructional model may be factors worth considering.
