Better than 14% of California elementary schools

Summary

Olivehurst Elementary is a public K-6 school serving 489 students in the Marysville Joint Unified district, operating in a high-needs community where over 70% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with proficiency rates in English, math, and science well below state averages, placing it in the bottom quartile of California elementary schools. However, it has made a notable improvement in reducing chronic student absenteeism, which is now better than both district and state averages. Performance varies greatly by grade, with 4th-grade math proficiency being a particular concern at only 3.9%, while the school spends more per student than any other in its district. Interestingly, the school shows stronger historical results with English Language Learners, though this has recently declined.

When compared to nearby schools, Edgewater Elementary in the same district performs better academically with significantly less funding per student. Several schools in neighboring districts, like Rio Del Oro Elementary in the Plumas Lake Elementary district, achieve much higher rankings while serving similar student populations, suggesting district-level practices play a key role. All schools within the Marysville Joint Unified district rank below the 50th percentile statewide, indicating a broader, district-wide challenge.
