Summary:
Zip code 95426 in California is served by one public elementary school, Cobb Mountain Elementary, a K-6 school with 110 students in the Middletown Unified district.
Cobb Mountain Elementary is a small school, which can allow for a close-knit community, but the data shows several areas of concern for parents to consider. Academic performance is mixed, with strengths in 3rd-grade math but notably low scores in 4th-grade English. Most importantly, the school has a very high rate of chronic student absenteeism at 32.5%, significantly above the state average, which is a major obstacle to learning. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the past three years.
Despite spending over $13,000 per student, the school has a high student-to-teacher ratio. The district, Middletown Unified, is rated average in the state, but this school performs below both district and state averages in most subjects. For parents, key questions would focus on the school's specific plans to improve attendance and provide targeted academic support, especially for the struggling 4th-grade cohort.
