Summary

Del Rey Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 234 students in the Sanger Unified district, representing a school that has shown impressive, steady improvement over the last decade.

The school has a standout strength in student attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 6.8%, which is significantly better than the district and state averages and the best among most nearby schools like Jefferson Elementary and Lincoln Elementary. Academically, Del Rey's math performance, at 43.8% proficient, exceeds both the district and state averages, with its 3rd graders performing particularly well. The school is notably effective with its student population, ranking in the 69th-70th percentiles statewide for specific student groups in recent years.

When compared to other local schools, Del Rey performs solidly, though it trails higher-performing schools like Sanger Academy Charter and Ronald W. Reagan Elementary. Areas for potential growth include science proficiency, which lags behind averages, and supporting consistent performance across all grade levels, as there is a dip in 5th-grade scores. The school benefits from higher per-student funding than many peers, which supports a favorable student-teacher ratio.
