Summary

Meadow View is a public elementary school serving 318 students in grades 3 through 5 in the Susanville Elementary district, serving a community with significant economic need where nearly 80% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school is rated a 2-star school on California's 0-5 scale, with test scores in English and math below the state average. However, it has notable strengths, particularly in science, where student proficiency actually exceeds the state average, and in its highly effective support for students in Special Education, which ranks in the 81st percentile statewide. The school has made good progress in reducing chronic student absences, even as the number of students facing economic hardship has increased. A point of concern is a steep decline in math scores from 3rd to 5th grade, suggesting a need for stronger support in that subject as students advance.

Compared to nearby schools like Richmond Elementary and Johnstonville Elementary, Meadow View serves a student population with a much higher concentration of economic need. It operates with less funding per student and a higher student-to-teacher ratio than several neighboring schools, such as Janesville Elementary, yet achieves comparable or better results in specific areas like science. Within its own Susanville Elementary district, its performance is similar to McKinley Elementary, though with a lower chronic absenteeism rate.
