Sartorette Charter

Summary:

Sartorette Charter is a public charter elementary school serving 269 students in grades K-5 in the Cambrian School District in San Jose, California. The school has consistently received a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing above average compared to other California elementary schools.

Sartorette Charter's test scores are generally on par with or slightly below the Cambrian School District average, but significantly outperform the state average across most grade levels and subjects. However, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 2.5% in 2018-2019 to 13.1% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the district average. Sartorette Charter performs particularly well for Asian students, ranking in the top 30% of California elementary schools in this category, but struggles more with Hispanic and White student performance, ranking in the bottom half of the state.

Sartorette Charter is located very close to Steindorf STEAM K-8 Magnet, which is one of the top-performing elementary schools in the state, providing an interesting comparison. The Cambrian School District as a whole is a high-performing district, with all of its schools ranking in the top 12% of California elementary schools. The relatively low free/reduced lunch rate at Sartorette Charter, compared to some nearby schools, may contribute to its academic performance, but the school still struggles with its Hispanic and White student subgroups, indicating there may be other factors at play.

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.
