El Mirage

Summary:

El Mirage is an elementary school located in Adelanto, California, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 133 students. The school is part of the Adelanto Elementary District, which is ranked 1439 out of 1568 districts in California and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

El Mirage faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students. The school has consistently low performance, with test scores that are significantly lower than the nearby Adelanto Elementary school and the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 11.9% of El Mirage students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 22.73% at Adelanto Elementary and 47.04% statewide. Additionally, El Mirage has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 11.5% in 2017-2018 to 48.1% in 2021-2022, which is significantly higher than the 61.7% rate at Adelanto Elementary in 2022-2023.

The challenges faced by El Mirage may be exacerbated by its high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 81.2% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, which is higher than the 91.29% at Adelanto Elementary and the 78.19% at Phelan Elementary, another nearby school. Additionally, El Mirage has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 21.8 to 24.3 over the past few years, which is higher than the nearby schools. These factors may be contributing to the school's consistently low performance and the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
