Summary:
Zip code 95548 in Klamath, California, contains one public elementary school, 'O Me-nok Learning Center, serving grades K-6 with 86 students in the Del Norte County Unified school district.
This school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 3% of all California elementary schools for the last three years. Student proficiency rates in English, math, and science are substantially below both the district and state averages, with only about 13% of students meeting standards in core subjects. A major contributing factor is a chronic absenteeism rate of 53.8%, meaning more than half the students miss a critical amount of school, which is more than double the district average and creates a significant barrier to learning.

The student population has a high level of economic need, with 87% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. For parents, this indicates a school community with considerable resources that is grappling with deep-seated challenges related to attendance and academic achievement, requiring targeted support and intervention to help students succeed.
