However, the data also reveals significant disparities in performance across the district. While some schools excel, others struggle, particularly in mathematics. Additionally, the wide range in spending per student, from $7,091 to $13,439, raises questions about the equitable distribution of resources and its impact on student outcomes. The district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9% is also an area of concern that requires further attention.
