However, the school's MCAP Math proficiency rates, while still above the district and state averages at 36%, are not as strong as its ELA performance.
While Flintstone Elementary has some areas for improvement, such as its low 5th-grade science proficiency rate and high chronic absenteeism rate of 36.4%, the school is well-resourced, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.1:1 and spending $18,800 per student.
