Summary:
The 92582 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic students and significant representation from other racial/ethnic groups. However, the schools in this area generally underperform compared to the San Jacinto Unified district and the state of California on academic assessments, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support.
Among the standout schools, Megan Cope Elementary has the highest performance on English Language Arts and Mathematics assessments, as well as a lower chronic absenteeism rate than the other elementary schools. At the high school level, Mountain Heights Academy stands out with the highest performance on English Language Arts assessments and lower dropout and chronic absenteeism rates compared to the other high schools in the area.
However, a significant concern across all the schools is the high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 33.4% at Megan Cope Elementary to 80.1% at Mountain View High. Additionally, the schools serve predominantly low-income communities, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by these schools. Addressing attendance issues and providing targeted support to address the needs of these economically disadvantaged communities should be a priority for the schools and the San Jacinto Unified district.
