Summary:
The 94580 zip code area in San Lorenzo, California is home to 11 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 4 high schools, all part of the San Lorenzo Unified School District, except for the public charter schools KIPP King Collegiate High and KIPP Summit Academy. The data reveals a diverse set of schools with a wide range of performance, with the KIPP charter schools standing out as strong performers and several district-run schools struggling with low test scores, high absenteeism, and poor graduation rates.
KIPP King Collegiate High and Arroyo High are the top-performing schools, ranking in the top 400 high schools in California and boasting high graduation rates of 98.2% and 94.6% respectively. KIPP Summit Academy also stands out as a high-performing middle school. In contrast, Edendale Middle and Hesperian Elementary have the lowest test scores in the area.
Socioeconomic factors appear to play a significant role, as the schools with the highest free/reduced lunch rates, such as Edendale Middle and San Lorenzo High, tend to have the lowest academic performance. Chronic absenteeism is also a major issue at many of the schools, with several having rates over 30%, which likely contributes to the lower outcomes. Overall, addressing the inequities within the San Lorenzo Unified School District and supporting the schools with the greatest needs will be crucial for improving educational opportunities in the 94580 zip code area.
