Cahuilla Desert Academy Junior High faces significant challenges in terms of student achievement and engagement. The school has seen a notable increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 13.7% in 2017-2018 to 41.1% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the state average of 16.9%. The school's performance on standardized tests is consistently below state and district averages, with only 29.49% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy and just 20.26% proficient in Mathematics, compared to 47.04% and 35.54% statewide, respectively. The school's subgroups, such as female students, Hispanic students, and students with disabilities, generally perform worse than their peers across the state.

Compared to nearby schools in the Coachella Valley Unified and Desert Sands Unified districts, Cahuilla Desert Academy Junior High performs significantly worse, with lower proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. However, the school's English Language Learners and students with disabilities perform better relative to their peers across the state, suggesting that the school may be providing targeted support for these student populations. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, ranging from 65.56% to 87.95% over the past few years, likely contributes to the challenges the school faces, and targeted interventions and support systems will be crucial in driving improvements.

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.
