Anthony C. Traina Elementary

Summary:

Anthony C. Traina Elementary is a public K-8 school in Tracy, California, serving 781 students as part of the Jefferson Elementary District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, it currently holds a 4-star rating, indicating it is performing above average compared to other California elementary schools.

However, the school faces some challenges. Male students have consistently outperformed female students, and Asian and Hispanic students have lower rankings compared to White and English Language Learner students. Additionally, the school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 3.3% in 2017-2018 to 19.1% in 2021-2022. Academically, Anthony C. Traina Elementary's test scores in English Language Arts/Literacy, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the district and state averages, with some exceptions in certain grade levels.

Interestingly, Monticello Elementary, another school in the same district, consistently outperforms Anthony C. Traina Elementary in both English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics. Meanwhile, schools in the neighboring Tracy Joint Unified School District, such as Central Elementary and McKinley Elementary, generally have lower test scores and rankings compared to Anthony C. Traina Elementary. Addressing the school's areas of concern, such as chronic absenteeism and achievement gaps, could help improve its overall academic performance and provide a more equitable education for all 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.
