Summary:
The 97914 zip code area is home to 6 elementary schools, serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools are part of the Ontario School District 8C and the Annex School District 29. The data reveals that Annex Charter School stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, with strong test scores across multiple grade levels and subjects. In contrast, the other schools in the area face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates and very high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage in the student population.
While Annex Charter School excels, with 57.1% of 7th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics, the other schools in the area struggle to match this level of performance. Aiken Elementary School stands out as the second-highest performer, with 45.9% of 3rd graders proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the district average of 32.2% and the state average of 39.9%. However, the chronic absenteeism rate across all schools in the area is significantly higher than the state average, at 34.3%, which is a concerning trend that warrants further investigation.
The data also reveals significant variation in resource allocation, with Annex Charter School spending the most per student at $32,097, while Alameda Elementary School spends the least at $18,656 per student. This disparity in funding may be a contributing factor to the performance differences observed across the schools in the 97914 zip code area.
