Summary:
The Cloverdale Unified School District has only one elementary school, Jefferson Elementary, which serves students from kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with a current ranking of 3772 out of 5862 California elementary schools and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Jefferson Elementary faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.6%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are lower than the state averages, though higher than the Cloverdale Unified School District averages. Additionally, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 62.2% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and has a slightly higher student-teacher ratio than the recommended 20:1 for elementary schools.
These findings suggest that Jefferson Elementary may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the declining performance, high chronic absenteeism, academic achievement gaps, and socioeconomic challenges faced by its students. Improving these areas could help the school better support its students and enhance their educational outcomes.
