Summary

Marylin Avenue Elementary is a K-5 public school serving about 430 students in the Livermore Valley Joint Unified School District, located in an area with many highly-rated schools.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with student proficiency in English, math, and science consistently below both district and state averages. A key factor is a chronic absenteeism rate of 21.5%, which is much higher than the district average and nearby schools like Sunset Elementary (8.2%) and Lawrence Elementary (7.0%). The school serves a student population with greater economic need, with over half qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, compared to much lower rates at top-performing neighbors such as Emma C. Smith Elementary.

Despite these outcomes, Marylin Avenue spends more per student than many comparison schools. Its performance has been variable over time, and it shows a notable achievement gap when compared to other schools in the same district, which is generally high-performing. The school's location near several top-tier schools, including Cottonwood Creek in the Dublin Unified district, highlights a stark contrast in educational outcomes within the same community.
