Summary

San Jacinto Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 519 students in the San Jacinto Unified district, an area where many families face significant economic challenges.

Academically, the school faces serious difficulties, with fewer than 17% of students proficient in English and only about 11% proficient in math, placing it among the lowest-performing elementary schools in California. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with 30% of students missing too much school, which is higher than the district average and much higher than nearby schools like Edward Hyatt World Language Academy (9.8%). The school's performance has declined sharply over the past decade, and it lags far behind other schools in the same district, such as Megan Cope Elementary and De Anza Elementary, which serve similar student populations but achieve much better results.

Despite these challenges, there are some points of comparison and opportunity. San Jacinto Elementary receives more funding per student than several higher-performing schools in its district, suggesting a need to examine how resources are used. The school's performance is similar to some of the lowest-performing schools in the neighboring Hemet Unified district, like Hemet Elementary. Internally, fifth graders show the strongest reading scores, indicating some effective instruction in the upper grades that could be a model for improvement.
